On May 31, 2015, 24-year-old Corey Derscheid was found dead in his North Little Rock home in the Rose City neighborhood with a single gunshot wound to the head. Derscheid, a local rapper who performed as 1.0triPPyDC, was discovered around 2:00 p.m. in a community described as typically quiet and shocked by the violence.

Authorities quickly identified and arrested a suspect, 45-year-old Christopher Maines, who was taken into custody by the Beebe Police Department and questioned by North Little Rock investigators. Maines allegedly told investigators he had loaded a handgun, entered Derscheid’s residence, and shot him in the head; he then fled the scene with his wife, Peggy Maines. Peggy told others her husband had been suffering from paranoia and she had urged him to seek psychiatric help.

Maines was charged with capital murder and later pleaded guilty; he received a life sentence without parole. A GoFundMe was started to support Derscheid’s family. If anyone knew Corey, his movements that day, or has information about the case, please share what you know.
