Casey Bonhorst was a 30-year-old delivery driver in Sioux Falls who was shot and killed on the night of February 26, 2020, after completing a pizza delivery near the 2800 block of East Bragstad Drive. Police described the encounter as an attempted robbery in which someone closed on Bonhorst with a gun as he walked back to his car; he was shot and died in the street.An intense investigation followed, a $25,000 reward was offered, and tips led to the arrest of Jahennessy Deunique LaPaul Bryant in early March 2020. Investigators later implicated Raymond Banks as well, and both men were jointly charged in a superseding indictment that included first-degree murder and attempted first-degree robbery among other counts.

Each man accused the other of firing the fatal shot.By late 2020 both defendants pleaded to reduced counts of first-degree manslaughter; Bryant’s plea required testimony against Banks. Sentences imposed in December 2021 were lengthy, and the record does not resolve definitively which man pulled the trigger.

If anyone knew Casey, the delivery he was making, or saw activity on East Bragstad Drive that night, please come forward with information.
