Duane Clarence Hettinger was 53 when he was shot and killed in his Clarkston, Washington apartment on the night of July 30, 2015. Known to friends and family for his loyalty and simple pleasures like biking and cooking, Hettinger died after an evening drinking with 66-year-old Melvin O’Rourke, who introduced a firearm into the situation.

O’Rourke contacted authorities and claimed self-defense, saying Hettinger had tried to rob him. Investigators and prosecutors disputed that account, pointing to a 911 call in which O’Rourke said Hettinger was still breathing but had waited to call until after Hettinger had died. At trial the jury rejected the self-defense claim and convicted O’Rourke of second-degree murder after just over an hour of deliberation.

If anyone knew Duane, his routines, or was in Clarkston on July 30, 2015, do come forward with what was seen or heard that night.
