Connely Duplantis was 66 when he was fatally shot in the carport of his parents’ home on Carolyn Avenue in Houma, Louisiana, on November 24, 2013. Duplantis, a retired Catholic deacon visiting from Gloster, Mississippi, had just finished lunch with his parents and was placing his dog into his van when he was approached from behind and shot. His iPhone 5 was taken, and investigators determined the motive was an armed robbery.

A 17-year-old homeless teenager, Leron Calloway, was named as a person of interest after an anonymous tip led police to a trailer in Whispering Oaks Trailer Park where he was arrested. He was charged with first-degree murder and armed robbery. At trial the defendant, by then 18, was found guilty of first-degree murder and sentenced to life with eligibility for parole after 35 years. Another man, 19-year-old Randy Wallace, was identified as an alleged accomplice and was facing a first-degree murder trial.

Are there details about Duplantis’s last hours, the scene, or witnesses that anyone in Houma remembers and can share?
