Stanton Stafford Saunders, 21, was shot and killed in Gulfport, Mississippi on the morning of June 8, 2016. Known as Trap to friends and family, he was an aspiring rapper, a West Harrison High School graduate and a father who was planning to move to Atlanta for his music career. Saunders was found with a gunshot wound to the chest near 34th Avenue and Ganges Street after witnesses saw him running from an assailant. He was taken to Memorial Hospital at Gulfport and died at 12:09 p.m.

Investigators focused on 18-year-old Juwan Johnson. Police say Saunders recorded a Snapchat video about half an hour before the shooting naming three people, including Johnson, whom he believed threatened him. Court testimony and surveillance footage describe a fight near the Isiah Fredericks Community Center, Johnson chasing Saunders across a field and shooting him in the back; Saunders collapsed in the street and was reportedly shot three more times. Johnson was arrested in Lake County, Florida on June 23, 2016, and extradited back to Mississippi.

Saunders was survived by his parents, his son, and he was awaiting the birth of a daughter; he was buried at Pine Ridge Cemetery in Gulfport. Does anyone have information about Saunders’ last movements that morning or the events near the community center?
