My name is Kayla Keith but previously known as Kayla Lance. The daughter of Gerald Lance. I have done so much digging & I know sounds cliche but have connections & I have uncovered a lot of the truth. What’s being said online & articles are not true, the detectives are covering or prolonging this investigation because they don’t want to prosecute the person responsible for my dads death which by the way was a drug dealer & felon which if you don’t know felons ARE NOT allowed fire arms & would be immediately prosecuted but the guy responsible for it is getting away with it for what I’m going to assume is due to my father “having history” with the detective that was on the case. Because when I went to speak to the detective he was rude & immediately told me he knew exactly who my father was & basically rushed me out the door, because “he had no further information to share” there’s a lot more to this case then the media sees or hears. But trust me, I am trying to get answers & to fight for my dad.
What the heck? That isn't the way to treat a grieving family member. How sickening. I am so sorry you are being victimized in more than just losing your dad. I wonder if the person that did this was an informant. Makes you wonder.....
On the evening of January 31, 2020, 39-year-old Gerald M. Lance of Everett, Washington, was shot and killed during a confrontation outside a home in the 1800 block of Chestnut Street. The encounter occurred about 8:30 p.m. when a homeowner returned and found Lance in the front yard; an altercation followed and the homeowner fired, striking Lance multiple times in the chest. The Snohomish County Medical Examiner ruled the cause of death gunshot wounds and the manner of death homicide.
Police said the homeowner told his wife to call 911 before he opened fire. Detectives opened an investigation to establish the circumstances of the shooting, including whether Lance and the homeowner had any prior history. As of these reports, no arrest had been made and the homeowner remained the only publicly identified person involved. Gerald Lance is survived by daughters, grandchildren, parents and other loved ones.
If anyone saw what happened that night or has information about Lance’s movements or the people involved near Chestnut Street around 8:30 p.m., please come forward.
