On April 3, 2000, 15-year-old Krisunda Jean Temple and her 19-year-old boyfriend, Roman Martin, were found shot to death in their Aurora, Colorado home. Each victim had been shot eight times; Temple suffered two gunshot wounds to her face. The killings prompted a homicide investigation that focused on a family member.

Authorities arrested 18-year-old Joshua Wayne Andrews, Martin’s brother, and charged him with two counts of murder. Prosecutors said longstanding disputes between the brothers culminated in the killings, pointing to incidents such as one in which Martin reportedly shot a phone jack while Andrews was on the line. Andrews’ defense argued that rival gang members were responsible instead.

In July 2001 a jury acquitted Andrews; the jury forewoman said jurors believed he was guilty but that the prosecution had not proved its case beyond a reasonable doubt. The deaths of Krisunda Temple and Roman Martin remain officially unsolved. Did anyone in Aurora at the time know Krisunda or have information about that night?
