Nicholas Brumfield, 23, was shot to death in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on May 31, 2014. He worked at Red’s Auto Upholstery trimming car interiors and building speaker boxes. Brumfield was shot seven times, including multiple wounds to the head; nothing was taken from him or the shop and no clear motive is known.

Two men, both 24 at the time, Leslie Ferguson and Devante Tremayne Courtney, were arrested and charged with second-degree murder. A grand jury later declined to indict them for Brumfield’s killing, finding insufficient evidence; the matter was pretermitted so prosecutors could return if new evidence turns up. Courtney was released; Ferguson remained held on an unrelated aggravated domestic abuse charge. Brumfield was a father, son, and brother, and his family continues to seek answers.

If anyone has information about what happened to Nicholas on May 31, 2014, please come forward.
