David A. Gaytan, a 34-year-old father and craftsman described as joyful and generous, was killed on May 14, 2017, at a friend’s home in the Lightner Creek Mobile Home Park in Durango, Colorado. Three people from Texas traveled to Durango reportedly intending to buy marijuana but instead carried out a robbery. While Michael Jones, 19, and Kevin Goff, 27, were inside the residence and Alysse Rios, 19, waited in a running black sedan, Jones produced a handgun and demanded wallets and pockets be emptied.

The three fled but were later arrested in Chaffee County by the Colorado State Patrol. Michael Jones was convicted of first-degree murder and multiple robbery and weapons counts and received life without parole. Kevin Goff and Alysse Rios pleaded guilty to aggravated robbery charges and received prison terms.

Did anyone who knew David or who was in Durango that day notice anything that could shed more light on what happened?
