Ken Russell was 22 when he was killed during a home-invasion robbery at a University Park Apartments party on Arthur Ford Court in Louisville on December 18, 2020. Russell refused to comply and tried to resist; one of the assailants shot him in the face, killing him while the others continued to rob partygoers and then fled.

Witnesses at the party identified one suspect to police. That lead resulted in a U.S. Marshals Service task force locating and arresting 24-year-old Jaronn Deramus in Bowling Green, Kentucky; he was charged with murder and first-degree robbery in connection with Russell’s death. Investigators said additional people were involved and the inquiry remained ongoing.

If anyone attended that party or has information about other people who took part in the invasion, please share what you know with investigators.
