Charles Christopher Cuti, 23, was found in the parking lot of Sam’s Drink All on Getty Street in Muskegon just before 11 p.m. on April 2, 2016, suffering a fatal gunshot wound to his torso. Friends and family described him as kind, funny, and devoted to his young daughter, and said he had been working to overcome a troubled past.

Investigators linked two suspects to the killing. Police allege Corey Nathaniel Burt Jr., 22, and Jaylan Deshawn Traviss, 20, had robbed a man in Muskegon Heights earlier that night and used the stolen phone to arrange a meeting with Cuti under the pretense of a drug deal. Warrants state the intent was to rob Cuti of drugs. Burt was arrested the day after the shooting and reportedly confessed to planning the meeting; prosecutors say he was the driver and charged him with open murder and armed robbery. Traviss was arrested in Cincinnati on April 20, 2016, and extradited to face open murder and robbery charges.

Did anyone in the community see or hear anything in the Getty Street area that night?
