Donavan Fielder was 18 when he was shot to death on October 14, 2020, in Aubrey, Texas. The killings took place in the early morning hours; investigators found Donavan inside the family home with multiple gunshot wounds and his mother, April Robinson, dead in a neighbor’s front yard, also from multiple gunshot wounds.

Authorities say 39-year-old Cory Washington, who had been living with Donavan and his mother, called 911 to confess to the shooting. Washington was arrested at the scene and charged with capital murder; he was held on $1 million bond.

This remains a traumatic loss for family and the Aubrey community. If anyone knew Donavan or has information about the events that night, please come forward to assist the ongoing investigation.
