Randy Canister III, 19, was found shot multiple times and left for dead on the side of the road at East Robins Drive and Ireland Street in the Green Valley Ranch neighborhood of Denver on the evening of February 17, 2015. Investigators said the killing was connected to a planned robbery over a cell phone and some cash and that Canister had been in a car with others when he was shot and abandoned.

Two men, 20-year-old Qashelby Frazier-Moore and 18-year-old Kentrall Hines, were arrested and charged with first-degree murder and felony murder in the case. Authorities also sought 19-year-old Ashyonte Johnson on charges of aggravated robbery and conspiracy to commit aggravated robbery, and another person, Ryan Hobbs, was arrested and charged with robbery.

After an 11-day trial, a Denver jury returned a split verdict: Kentrall Hines was convicted of one count of murder, attempt to commit aggravated robbery, and conspiracy to commit aggravated robbery and was sentenced to life without parole plus 16 years; Qashelby Frazier-Moore was acquitted on all counts. Does anyone have information about the events that night or contacts who might shed light on what led to this planned robbery?
