Fifteen-year-old Owen Hughes was shot to death inside a home in Topeka, Kansas, on November 12, 2019. Described as kind, generous, and close to his family and friends, he is remembered for his compassion and his laugh.

At the same scene, 21-year-old Reginald McKenna Jr. was also found dead outside the home. Investigators later concluded McKenna’s death resulted from an act of self-defense by Owen during the altercation. In the year after the shooting, two men were arrested in connection with Owen’s killing: Larry Huggin III was charged with murder, and a second suspect, 23-year-old Darnell Tyrie Peppers, was later arrested and charged with multiple offenses related to the teen’s death.

What information do readers have about Owen’s last known movements or who might have been at the residence that day?
