Savion Bostic-Aponte, a 20-year-old Black man, was found dead on January 29, 2017, under a tree in the yard of an abandoned home at 133 Chestnut Avenue in Waterbury, Connecticut. Neighbors reported hearing gunshots the night before. Investigators determined he had been lured to the property in what was planned as a robbery; earlier that day, January 27, he had bought a red Volkswagen Jetta with cash from a paycheck.

Police identified two men in the case: Tijuan Fly Gibson and Tysean Snow. Snow, described as a friend of the victim, later told prosecutors he had lured Bostic-Aponte to the location and that Gibson shot him. Snow pleaded guilty to robbery charges, was sentenced to 18 years, and agreed to testify against Gibson. Gibson was convicted of felony murder, first-degree robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery and was sentenced to 55 years; the jury found him not guilty of a separate murder charge.

Did anyone in the Waterbury area know Savion or have information about the events of January 27–29, 2017?
