Robert Earl Turner, 54, was fatally shot in an alley behind Monaco Street in Denver, Colorado, on October 25, 2021. A painter and warehouse worker, he was active in the Spiritual Mind Deliverance Church and was taking classes to become a Deacon. He is survived by a son, daughters, and grandchildren.

Denver police found Turner with a single gunshot wound to his upper chest after responding to a 911 call; paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene. Surveillance video shows two cars pull into the alley, a male voice ordering someone out of a car, and a single gunshot. A second voice, believed to be Turner’s, is heard calling for his mother just before the shot.

A trial was held and a jury found Warren Simpson guilty of second-degree murder. What details about that afternoon or the people involved might someone in the neighborhood remember that could shed more light on what happened?
