On the evening of May 10, 2014, 29-year-old Joshua Thomason was shot once in the torso at a shared house on Spur Road in Denham Springs, Louisiana. The shooting followed a dispute after a housemate, 25-year-old Jason Wesley Holcombe, was told he would have to leave because he was unemployed and not contributing to household expenses. Deputies arrived around 6 p.m.; Holcombe fled but was located the next morning on Linder Road following tips from residents and was booked in connection with Thomason’s death.

At trial, witnesses testified that Holcombe became enraged after being asked to leave. A forensic pathologist’s testimony was among the evidence presented to the jury. Eleven of the twelve jurors found Holcombe guilty of second-degree murder, a conviction that carries a life sentence in Louisiana, and he was sentenced to life imprisonment at hard labor without benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence.

Did anyone in the Denham Springs area have contact with the house or its residents in May 2014 who can add details about the lead-up to the dispute?
