Vaughn Wilson, 60, was found dead from multiple gunshot wounds at a Denham Road residence in East Baton Rouge Parish on a Thursday evening in January 2024. Detectives responding to the scene identified the death as a fatal shooting.

Witnesses reported Wilson walking toward the rear of the property with his 37-year-old nephew, Jordy Wilson, shortly before the shooting. Deputies from the Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Office located and arrested Jordy at a business on Range Road in Denham Springs. A search of his vehicle reportedly turned up a firearm and quantities of methamphetamine and cocaine; he was booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Jail on charges including second-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Reports say Jordy declined to give a statement about what happened.

If anyone at the Denham Road residence that night or who knew Vaughn or Jordy has information, please share what you know.
