Stephen P. Coen was 29 when he was fatally shot in Topeka, Kansas, on the evening of December 18, 2011. He was a self-employed auto mechanic and an Atchison High School graduate. Family remembered him as a son, brother and father; he left behind a daughter and his partner was expecting another child.

Topeka police identified a suspect, Marshall Stewart IV, who was arrested and later convicted of voluntary manslaughter in connection with Coen’s death. Stewart received a prison sentence of more than eight years for that conviction.

What details about the night of December 18, 2011, might help clarify how the shooting unfolded, and can anyone who knew Stephen or was in Topeka then add information?
