Dionte Amon Harris was 22 when he was found shot to death at his apartment in the Regal Apartments on South Academy Boulevard in Colorado Springs on the evening of May 3, 2018. Police discovered Harris deceased from a gunshot wound; initial reports did not disclose a motive.

Within days three people were arrested in connection with the killing. Cortez Lee-Read, 23, and Lakela Brasfield, 24, were taken into custody in Pueblo, and 22-year-old Austin Wayne Boyd was arrested in Colorado Springs. All three were charged with first-degree murder.

In August 2019 a jury found Austin Wayne Boyd guilty of second-degree murder; that conviction carried a possible sentence of 16 to 48 years. The final outcomes for Cortez Lee-Read and Lakela Brasfield were not detailed, and the specific roles of those arrested and the motive for the shooting remain unclear.

If anyone knew Dionte, lived near the Regal Apartments, or has information about what happened that night, please share what you know.
