Patrick PJ Gilbert was 29 when he was shot and killed in Russellville, Kentucky, on the evening of July 24, 2016. He was inside a small room on Edwards Avenue playing dice with friends when Gregory Q. Posey entered and fired multiple times; Gilbert was hit five times, managed to crawl outside, and later died at Logan Memorial Hospital.

The shooting appears to have arisen from a personal dispute. Posey was reportedly angry that Gilbert was dating his ex-girlfriend; the woman and Posey had two children together and she was pregnant with Gilbert’s child at the time. In the weeks before the killing Posey allegedly sent threatening texts and social media messages and had spoken with a local judge about the situation.

Posey was identified as a person of interest, turned himself in on July 28, 2016, and was arrested on charges including murder and possession of a handgun by a convicted felon. The jury convicted Posey; he received a life sentence and later appeals were denied. Does anyone have information about Gilbert’s last hours or the Edwards Avenue gathering?
