On the evening of May 21, 2022, Gregory Schaffer, 42, was shot multiple times on the front porch of his home at 443 E. 250 West in Springville, Utah, just before 7 p.m. Police found him with several gunshot wounds; an empty DoorDash delivery bag was near the front door and a gun was on a flatbed trailer in the driveway.

Investigators identified 25-year-old Hunter Ryan Lamoreaux of Orem, a former neighbor, as a suspect. Lamoreaux went to the police station after the shooting; his appearance and vehicle matched witness descriptions. He told police he believed Gregory needed to die, said he had been planning the killing for two months, and admitted he fired at Schaffer after asking for a glass of water. Lamoreaux said his first shot misfired, then he fired repeatedly and aimed for Schaffer’s head and heart. Court records show a judge had recently granted Schaffer primary custody of his children, and Lamoreaux said he was upset about the divorce and custody dispute though he had no direct knowledge of abuse.

Lamoreaux was arrested and charged with murder and later found competent to stand trial. Does anyone have information about Gregory’s life in Springville or about the custody dispute that might help fill gaps in the timeline?
