Samira Siwakoti, 31, was shot and killed on June 10, 2015, while working at the convenience store she owned with her husband in The Colony, Texas. The shooting occurred during an armed robbery; a 19-year-old man, Deon Kingston Jr., entered the store, took money from the register, and shot Samira in the face, killing her instantly.

An anonymous tip led police to Kingston, who was arrested after fleeing the scene and charged with capital murder. Authorities linked him to other armed robberies in the area, including one at a Cash-N-Go in The Colony days earlier, and investigators said he may have had accomplices. The initial trial ended in a mistrial in August 2016 when the jury could not reach a unanimous verdict; the victim’s husband, Nabaraj Siwakoti, died of natural causes during the trial. The family’s two young daughters are being cared for by relatives, and the community organized fundraisers and offered rewards.

What information might help identify any additional suspects or clarify who else was involved in the robbery?
