On an April evening in 1984, 18-year-old Robin Lynn Cady returned to the Phoenix mobile home where she rented a room and walked into a violent robbery that ended in her death. Two men, John Nabors and Michael Emerson Correll, had forced their way inside earlier, bound the homeowner, Guy Snelling, and his girlfriend, Debra Rosen, with duct tape. When Robin and her boyfriend, Shawn D'Brito, arrived they were also restrained and all three were forced at gunpoint into Robin’s car and driven to a remote desert area north of Phoenix.

In the desert, Correll shot Snelling in the head but Snelling survived and later testified. John Nabors shot and killed both Shawn D'Brito and Robin Cady after an initial misfire; Debra Rosen, left at the mobile home, was later found strangled with a shoelace. Nabors was killed in a shootout with police; Correll fled to Las Vegas and was arrested on April 20, 1984, then convicted and sentenced to death later that year.

Does anyone have memories of Robin, Shawn, or the mobile home community in Phoenix from April 1984 who can share details that might fill gaps in the timeline?
