Paul S Labiner, a 68-year-old attorney, was found dead on July 1, 2023 in the parking garage of an office building at 5499 N. Federal Highway in Boca Raton, Florida. He was discovered lying face down in the garage breezeway, still holding his car keys, with four gunshot wounds: twice in the lower body, once in the chest, and once in the head. Five spent 9mm casings were recovered near the body; three live rounds were found near the walkway entrance and another live bullet was located in a trash can.

Surveillance video showed a man, later identified as Paul’s 34-year-old son Brandon Labiner, arriving on a maroon bicycle, removing a gun from a drawstring backpack, pacing in the garage and then engaging in a struggle with the victim before shots were fired. Brandon was arrested the following day at his law office after his sister identified him in the images. The family had an ongoing, bitter dispute that included a civil lawsuit alleging Brandon embezzled nearly $450,000 from a spousal trust fund; that dispute had led to administrative action against his law license earlier in the year. Brandon was charged with first-degree murder and tampering with or fabricating physical evidence and pleaded not guilty.

What additional information do readers have about the relationship between Paul and Brandon or about the events at the garage that morning?
