Stephen Richard Spike Erving, 21, was shot and killed in his first-floor bedroom on Lincoln Street in Stoughton, Massachusetts, in the early hours of March 16, 2010. At approximately 3:30 a.m., someone fired multiple shots from a 9 mm pistol through his bedroom window while he was asleep, fatally wounding him.

Erving, a former Brockton Boxer hockey player and father of three sons — Nathan, Zachary, and Stephen Jr — was described as loyal to friends and family. Authorities quickly identified and arrested 21-year-old Michael W. Blanchard; he and Erving were known to one another and had a history of conflict. Blanchard was arraigned the day of the murder and later tried in Norfolk Superior Court.

A jury convicted Blanchard of second-degree murder and he received life with the possibility of parole after 15 years, plus a concurrent sentence for carrying a firearm without a license. The conviction was upheld on appeal in February 2017. Did anyone who knew Stephen or saw activity on Lincoln Street that night come forward with information?
