Joshua LaDale Pittman, 37, was shot and killed inside the Pick N Pay Food Mart at 504 Faulkner Lane in Waco, Texas, on December 23, 2015. Investigators say the killing was part of a murder-for-hire plot tied to a string of robberies in which Pittman had been involved.

Detectives reported that Pittman had allegedly set up Keith Spratt to be robbed and had robbed Tyler Sherrod Clay. Investigators concluded the robbery victims conspired to kill Pittman, and that Tyler Clay solicited Spratt to carry out the murder. On June 30, 2017, Tyler Sherrod Clay, 28, and Keith Antoine Spratt, 28, were arrested and charged with capital murder.

The case produced a lengthy legal battle centered on robbery, conspiracy, and a murder-for-hire allegation. Does anyone have additional information about Pittman, the robbery incidents, or witnesses who were present at the scene?
