On the morning of May 21, 2022, two young men were found dead near a pond in Cedarbrook Estates Mobile Home Park, White Lake Township, Michigan. Sixteen-year-old Drake Mancuso and 20-year-old Cameron Duckworth had walked into a wooded area with two acquaintances, 18-year-old Steven Dean Morrow and 18-year-old Jesse James Wright. According to investigators, Morrow and Wright allegedly planned to rob the pair. At the secluded spot, Morrow reportedly produced a pistol and fired multiple times at Mancuso and Duckworth. Officers arriving around 8:51 a.m. discovered both victims with fatal gunshot wounds; money, a backpack, and a watch were taken from them.

Surveillance footage and other investigative leads tied Morrow and Wright to the scene. Both were arrested on May 22 and initially charged with two counts of felony murder, two counts of armed robbery, and firearm-possession enhancements. Court filings describe Morrow as the triggerman and Wright as the getaway driver. Morrow later pleaded guilty to felony murder and armed robbery; Wright pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of accessory after the fact and received credit for roughly 330 days already served plus restitution. Does anyone have information about Drake Mancuso or the events that morning that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
