Todd J. Festa was 28 when he was found fatally shot in Wallingford, Connecticut, on January 7, 1998. He sustained several gunshot wounds to his head and body in what investigators described as a calculated act of violence. At the time of his death Festa was a prospective member of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club.

Investigators later learned Festa had been working as an informant for the Connecticut State Police, a fact reportedly unknown to most club associates. When his cooperation with law enforcement became known, that betrayal led to deadly consequences. Daniel Dan Klimas, identified as the sergeant-at-arms of the Hells Angels Connecticut Nomads Chapter, lured Festa to Polish National Alliance Park in Wallingford, where the shooting occurred.

Klimas was arrested and charged with murder and possession of a pistol without a permit; in March 2000 he pleaded guilty to both counts and received a 28-year prison sentence. Did anyone who knew Festa or saw him in Wallingford around January 7, 1998, hear or see anything that could shed more light on that day?
