Robert Duncan was 17 and from Midland, Texas, when he was killed on December 29, 2019. His body was found on New Year’s Eve on the property of a small RV park south of the Love’s truck stop near the intersection of Loop 250 and Interstate 20. Investigators determined he had been shot and left for dead after what began as a robbery attempt tied to a marijuana exchange.

Three people have been implicated in the case. Rogelio Ivan Cadena, 20, was sentenced to 22 years; evidence says he provided the guns used by two others and had prior felony charges. Zaydan Logan Hayes, 18 at the time, pleaded guilty to murder, was charged with capital murder, and received a 99-year sentence with parole ineligibility until 30 years served. Larry West Jr., 17 at the time, pleaded guilty under a deal and was given 35 years; the death penalty was not possible because of his age.

Robert was remembered as fun-loving, adventurous, and passionate about music and martial arts. Does anyone have information about Robert’s movements in Midland in late December 2019 or about the RV park area where his body was found?
