Hitman Caught On Camera Moments Before Executing Her Target

Summary of main arguments and reported developments

• Two executions in one day (Longmont, CO): The video recounts a case in which a woman, Devon Shriner (26), is informed that the father of her 5-year-old son (Jason Schaefer, 33) has been shot and killed in broad daylight while working as a mail carrier. Early witness accounts describe a hooded/masked shooter fleeing the area.

• Police struggle early on—then uncover a major insider advantage: While officers search the neighborhood (including drones and K9 units) and canvass residents, detectives initially have few leads and unclear motive. The coverage emphasizes how the killers had effectively planned ahead, including months of alleged coordination with someone inside law enforcement, giving the perpetrators operational advantages.

• A crucial lead emerges from surveillance footage: Residents provide descriptions that help identify the suspect captured on CCTV (including doorbell camera footage). Investigators interpret the footage as showing the shooter approaching Jason calmly and then firing—suggesting the killing was targeted rather than random.

• Devon becomes a suspect through custody conflict and new evidence: Jason’s death shifts the investigation toward Devon after police learn:

  • Devon and Jason had a high-conflict relationship tied to custody and separation.
  • Devon had been served with custody-related legal actions days earlier.
  • Surveillance and investigative clues (including a scanner/radio activity trace tied to Jason’s route and Devon’s proximity based on tracking/systems) place Devon in the vicinity and link her to the timeline.

• Devon’s sister provides testimony pointing toward her boyfriend “AJ”:

  • Rosa (Devon’s younger sister) tells investigators that after being kicked out by Devon, she later learned Devon was dating Jason after living situations changed.
  • Rosa alleges Devon previously threatened Jason and that Jason was warned about someone with guns.
  • Most importantly, Rosa identifies a man nicknamed “AJ” as someone allegedly connected to threats and access to weapons.

• Investigators use a “trap” to force Devon to the station: Police bring Devon’s child from daycare to the police department shortly after the murder. The strategy is designed to create urgency so Devon must come in—allowing investigators to confront her with evidence and obtain her account.

• Devon is questioned; she invokes her right to counsel: During an interview, detectives confront Devon with inconsistencies and surveillance/scanner-linked details. Devon denies wrongdoing but eventually requests a lawyer, limiting detectives’ ability to obtain a complete account.

• Devon’s story is expanded via a postal inspector interview: A U.S. Postal Inspector interviews Devon to clarify her actions and timeline on the day of the murder. Investigators also seize her clothing for gunshot residue testing, confiscate her phone, and impound her vehicle.

• The investigation identifies AJ’s real identity and role: Investigators later learn “AJ” is Andrew James Richie (34), a federal correctional officer. AJ initially gives an account that he was not with Devon at the relevant time, but investigators later find contradictions using phone/GPS/surveillance data.

• AJ is interrogated and the plot expands: When detectives confront AJ with evidence, they move from treating him as merely a possible accomplice to treating him as a key facilitator. AJ is portrayed as having helped Devon by:

  • coordinating or enabling her ability to locate/approach Jason, and
  • attempting to manufacture an alibi after the shooting.

• Both charged; verdicts and sentencing: The video concludes with both Devon and AJ being convicted of first-degree murder (complicity):

  • Devon was found guilty and sentenced to life without parole (reported as March 2023).
  • AJ was later convicted and received the same sentence (reported as six months later).
  • The prosecution emphasizes complicity, meaning AJ faced the same first-degree murder charge even if he did not fire the gun.
