In the early morning hours of April 15, 2016, gunfire in Willingboro, New Jersey, left 31-year-old Colby Rodgers dead inside a parked car on Woodhaven Lane. Responding officers found Rodgers, a Mount Laurel resident, with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene and the Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office classified the death as a homicide.

Investigators from the Willingboro Township Police Department and the Prosecutor’s Office pursued leads for years without an arrest, and public appeals were made seeking information. In March 2025 authorities charged 31-year-old Ronny Paden, described as an acquaintance who reportedly had a falling out with Rodgers, with first-degree murder and weapons offenses; Paden was already in custody on unrelated matters and the matter was being prepared for presentation to a grand jury.

Are there readers who knew Colby or who have information about that April 2016 morning that could help the ongoing case?
