Dedrick Coleman was a 20-year-old father from Houston, Texas, who was shot and killed on October 23, 2015, while walking home from a neighborhood store. He was the father of a two-year-old boy. During the encounter the assailant took his money and cell phone.

Police later identified Willie Robert Scott as the suspect in the robbery and killing. Scott had been arrested in May 2016 on separate charges alleging he raped two women at gunpoint in February 2015; he confessed to Coleman’s murder during an interview with investigators and was charged with capital murder on June 16, 2017.

Coleman’s family sought accountability after this violent loss. Does anyone have information about Coleman’s routine in that neighborhood or remember seeing him the day he was killed?
