Lonnie Houston, 27, was found shot multiple times in the head on November 14, 2011. After the shooting his body was moved to neighboring Saginaw County and set on fire inside his mother’s car near the Zilwaukee Bridge. The charred vehicle led to identification of the victim and a homicide investigation that shocked the Bay City area.

Authorities arrested three men in connection with the killing: Stephen Ashley Jr., Kaleb Rosin, and Brett Vaughn. They were charged with murder, conspiracy, and weapons offenses; prosecutors sought severe penalties including the possibility of life sentences. At arraignment the three appeared emotionless, answered only the judge’s questions, and were denied bond.

Lonnie’s family and friends attended court and spoke of their grief and desire for accountability. One of the accused later pleaded no contest to second-degree murder. Does anyone have information about Lonnie’s last known movements or the case that could help investigators or the family?
