Mark Joseph Stanziano, a 57-year-old attorney in Somerset, Kentucky, was fatally shot on the sidewalk in front of his downtown law office at about 8:00 a.m. on June 27, 2014. Witnesses reported the shooter approached Stanziano and fired seven shots from a 9mm pistol, striking him multiple times in the torso. A Pulaski County sheriff’s detective who witnessed the attack apprehended the gunman at the scene and emergency responders transported Stanziano to Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

The suspect was identified as 40-year-old Clinton D. Inabnit, who lived in an apartment across the street and had reportedly been in contact with Stanziano the evening before. Investigators said Inabnit had made prior threats against the attorney and had a history of mental illness; he told police he believed a newspaper had sent him a message and that hearing ringing would stop if he shot Stanziano. Stanziano’s widow said her husband had tried to help Inabnit, even offering to pay for treatment.

What did anyone see in downtown Somerset that morning that might fill gaps in the timeline leading up to the shooting?
