On the night of June 20, 2015, 24-year-old Enpaul Cantero of Garfield, New Jersey, was shot and killed outside the Cloud 9 Lounge on Market Street in Passaic after the club closed. Cantero had been with friends earlier that evening and was standing on the sidewalk when a man approached and shot him in the chest at close range, then ripped a chain from his neck.

The same bullet that struck Cantero also hit 22-year-old Denisse Gonzalez, who was standing behind him; she died from her wounds. A third person was wounded in the attack. Emergency crews took the victims to St. Joseph’s Regional Medical Center, where Cantero and Gonzalez later died.

Investigators concluded the shooting was part of a robbery. Three men were charged in connection with the deaths. The shooter, identified as Luis Del Carmen, was tried and in January 2018 a jury found him guilty of multiple counts, including two counts of murder; he received an overall sentence of 118 years. Johan Gonzalez and Augusto Solano were charged with felony murder and conspiracy to commit robbery for their roles.

Did anyone who was at Cloud 9 that night or who knew Enpaul come forward with details that helped the case?
