Jonathan Bruce Singletary Sr., 45, of East Cleveland, Ohio, was shot and killed in the early morning hours of October 26, 2017, on an East Cleveland street. He had worked as a welder and electrician before opening a restaurant called The Taste of Something Good and was a father of five and grandfather of two.

The investigation produced arrests and indictments: Merlin T. Johnson, Eric G. Wilson, and Latifah N. Stewart. Johnson and Wilson faced charges including aggravated murder, murder, felonious assault, aggravated robbery, discharging a firearm near prohibited premises, tampering with evidence, and having a weapon while under disability. Stewart was charged with obstructing justice for hindering the investigation.

Johnson waived a jury and was tried by the court in April 2018; the bench trial concluded May 2, 2018, with Johnson found guilty on multiple counts and sentenced to 34 years to life in prison. Wilson’s trial was delayed when his attorney was absent, and a warrant was issued for Stewart after she failed to appear in court.

Did anyone in the community who knew Jonathan or his business see or hear anything that night?
