The Challenge
In November 2017, a 35-year-old Palm Beach resident was found deceased inside his vehicle at the intersection of 45th Street and Broadway in West Palm Beach, Florida, with a fatal gunshot wound. He was the caretaker to the children of a well known and highly regarded local physician.
The Solution
The employer of the deceased, as his children’s driver and part time caretaker, sought clarity and justice following the unresolved circumstances of his employee’s death. BDA’s investigative team conducted a comprehensive review of the case, meticulously analyzing the crime scene, gathering physical evidence, and interviewing potential witnesses. Their thorough approach aimed to uncover critical information that could shed light on the events leading to his untimely death.
The Result
Through persistent efforts and collaboration with local law enforcement, BDA was instrumental in advancing the investigation.
“I can remember meeting with our client at a high end restaurant in Palm Beach and telling him that the man he had entrusted the safety of his kids to for years, had a double life including drugs and prostitution,” said Mike Ruggiero, President of BDA. He continued, “After he was able to recover from that realization, he was grateful we were able to provide evidence and clarity to local law enforcement who were not able to allocate sufficient resources to the case to find a resolution.”
