On the evening of November 28, 2017, 28-year-old Taelor Taylor was found dead on the porch of his home in the first block of North Trenton Street in Dayton, Ohio, after suffering a fatal gunshot wound to the chest. Police responding to a 911 call reviewed surveillance footage from the house that showed three people approach the residence around 10:00 p.m.; at least two were armed. The video appears to capture the group entering the home, robbing Taylor and then shooting him.

Two men were identified through that surveillance footage and were arrested in December 2017: Trenton M. Williams, 28, of Columbus, and 28-year-old Trashune Young. Young later pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter, aggravated robbery and having a weapon while under disability and received an 18-year sentence. Williams was convicted by a jury of aggravated murder, aggravated robbery, aggravated burglary, felonious assault and having weapons while under disability and was sentenced to 31 years to life with parole eligibility after 31 years.

The surveillance video from Taylor’s home was central to identifying suspects and to the case against them. If anyone knew Taelor Taylor or has information about what happened that night, please share what you know.
