On the evening of June 10, 2016, 34-year-old Clarence McQuarpers (reported in some accounts as Clarence McQuarters) was fatally shot outside his apartment complex on Nellis Boulevard in Las Vegas. He worked as a bus driver for the Regional Transportation Commission and was remembered by friends as kind and helpful. Reports say the killing was driven by jealousy after Cortrayer Zone came to believe his girlfriend was having an affair with McQuarpers.

Investigators say Zone and his friend Michael Rusk planned an ambush, waited more than an hour for McQuarpers to return, then two masked men opened fire and fled. After the shooting, Rusk allegedly committed a robbery and broke into a nearby apartment before being captured when he jumped from a balcony.

In October 2021, juries convicted both Cortrayer Zone, then 43, and Michael Rusk, then 33, of first-degree murder with a deadly weapon and conspiracy to commit murder; Rusk received additional convictions for home invasion and robbery. Who in the neighborhood might have seen the ambush or the vehicles involved that night?
