I'm Elizabeth Milner.
18
To give you an idea of just how violent the shooting was, investigators recovered nearly two dozen shell casings from the scene.
19
Authorities alleged the suspect fired the shots at the victim while his mom and 12 year old sister were inside the home.
20
It's July 6, 2024.

71
The victim was Darian's stepfather, and it's unclear if he's okay.
72
Shortly after Darian called 911, another family member was on the line with them too.
73
He was shot. By who?
74

75
Okay.
76

100
He's the shooter, yes.

177
While officers detained Darian outside, his stepfather was lying on the floor in the living room of the home suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.
178
While the police report doesn't name the victim, South Florida news stations like NBC6 South Florida have identified the victim as 44 -year -old Christian Colon.
179
According to the incident report, Rescue 49 responded and pronounced the victim dead at approximately 11 a .m.
180
Now, by this point, it's unclear why Darian allegedly shot and killed his stepdad.
181
trying to work things out and he was living back at their residence.
182
It's also unclear how Darien dislocated his shoulder.
183
This arm's good.
184
This arm's good.
185
This one's definitely a pop down.
186

256
Here's what his mom reportedly told officers in a sworn statement.
257
In summary, Redacted said her son began to experience mental health issues since 2019.
258
According to her, he was diagnosed with schizophrenia but has never been violent.
259
However, he believed the victim wanted to kill him.
260
Yesterday, July 5th, 2024, the suspect came by the house
261
and she thought it was odd that he came by the house again.
262
But the victim was not home, so she did not worry.
263
Earlier in the morning, between 7 and 8 a .m., the suspect came back but Redacted did not open the door.
264
She told him they not ready for visitors so the suspect left.
265
The incident report goes on to say Darian returned to the
266
home just a few hours later at approximately 10 :43 a .m and that's when his mom met him outside the home.
267
According to her, after a brief hug, the suspect pushed past and ran inside the house.
268
He went upstairs to the master bedroom and she ran after him.
269
Unbeknown to the suspect, the victim was sitting on the couch downstairs
270
and the bedroom redacted tried to contain suspect and attempted to calm him down.
271
Darian couldn't calm down.
272
He saw his stepfather in the living room
273
and investigators say the suspect then produced a handgun from his waistband and shot the victim multiple times.
274
Redacted asked her 12 -year -old daughter who was at home with a friend to call 911.
275
After the shooting, the suspect walked away
276
but came back to see the victim was still moving and making noises and he shot him multiple times again.
277
The incident report says crime scene investigators recovered 21 shell casings from the scene.
278
Officers say Darian's mom, his 12 -year -old sister and her father, friend gave consistent swar statements.
279
Darian's mom al ring camera footage which Darian pushed past her to home.
280
Darian is ultimatl murder after getting the a hospital without his shoul to the police department f
281
in the room alone for more seems to ramble on and on The only reason I really t - Yeah.
282

284
I put it there on my deck.
285
Thank you.
286
But yeah, tell us something.
287
I guess schedule is just the direction that I'm going in. and just some momentum.
288
I'm not going to say, I should be doing this. So...
289
- So I'm ready to, College.
290
Amen.
291
just DJ or on the couch.
292
Let's see if he's willing to talk about his stepfather's murder with a detective.
293
Nice to meet you.
294
Nice to meet you.
295
Tired?
296
You getting any sleep lately? And some.
297
Um.
298
So I'm in charge of investigating what happened today.
299
Okay.
300
Before that I want you to know you a little bit.
301
See who you are, where you from. Where am I from?
302
Okay, and then we went to Cleveland.
303
Okay.
304
How old are you?
305
23. Okay.
306
You were born in Ohio?
307
Yeah, I grew up here.
308
In South Florida?
309
Okay.
310
What brought you to South Florida?
311
My parents moved when I was five.
312
Okay.
313
Did you go to high school here?
314
Yeah, what high school did you write her from?
315
I didn't graduate but I went to University School of Medicine.
316
Okay, let me see.
317
What happened?
318
How come you didn't graduate?
319
I missed the final and they didn't like that.
320
too many days, so since I didn't finish the final they were like Wow, congratulations.
321
You go to college?
322
No, I'm thinking about going to college, actually.
323
I'm thinking about getting my GED in going to college.
324
What do you want to say?
325
Uh, business.
326
You want to own your own business?
327
Really bad.
328
Okay.
329
What kind of business do you want to own?
330
Um.
331
Maybe like a tech company.
332
A tech company?
333
Yeah.
334
Are you good with computers?
335
No. No. Okay, well that's what you're going to go to school for.
336
Uh, yeah.
337
Well, I guess sort of, because business is one thing, but computers is another.
338
You code?
339
I don't code.
340
I have no interest in coding.
341
But we're not going to take them.
342
I have an idea of starting like a like a music application for Xbox.
343
But that's like a lot of like...
344
like you said.
345
Like you have the base idea for it.
346
Yeah, you have the idea.
347
Somebody else can do the coding.
348
So what do we do though?
349
Basically on Xbox you can't listen to music with your friends right now, so it would be an app that would allow you to
350
play Xbox but while listening to music with friends at the same time, you could switch Can you do it on a plane station?
351
I don't know.
352
Okay.
353
So that's kind of unique.
354
Can you do it with the computer?
355
Yeah, I mean, probably.
356
So if you can enter a computer, I'm surprised Microsoft hasn't come up with stuff.
357
I have no idea.
358
That seems like a good thing to do, because if it takes off, then you're going to be rich.
359
Yeah, I just really enjoy stuff like that.
360
I love money for me.
361
What do you do now for the...
362
I thought I was just gonna get in.
363
So I'm really just trying to get something to build some momentum so I can start my life.
364
So I think college might be a good one. For sure.
365
How do you spend your time now?
366
around my brother and Yeah.
367
What's your brother's name?
368
His name is Gavin.
369
Gavin, okay.
370
And where does he look?
371
How we live together.
372
Okay, you guys share what, a house or a contract?
373
Yeah, a house, but he's, I think, moving for work.
374
I was in my aunt and talking to her at college.
375
What does he do for a living?
376
Um...
377
He was working at Goldman Sachs Okay, doing what?
378
Sales?
379
I think he's trying to do sales now again.
380
Okay.
381
But then he's trying to start his own business.
382
and he was traveling a lot. But...
383
uh Just to have some income coming in, he's going to go back to Goldman's product.
384
Okay.
385
It's a good company.
386
It's a great company.
387
I think I saw something there about to merge.
388
Um Saks Fifth Avenue, about to merge in a $2 .6 billion deal.
389
Something like that, yeah.
390
I just saw that.
391
They're two great companies.
392
Um...
393
All right, Ben, so you know how to read and write in English, is that right?
394
Yeah.
395
Okay.
396
Even though you didn't complete high school, you don't know how to read.
397
Yeah, I know. Do you take drugs?
398
No. Okay, so you're sober right now?
399
Okay.
400
Darian is willing to answer all the preliminary questions.
401
He even says he doesn't have any mental health issues.
402
Once the detective Mirandizes him, that's when the interview takes a turn.
403
Do you have any mental health issues that would preclude you from understanding your rights, if I explain them to you?
404
No. Okay.
405
Have you ever been diagnosed with anything?
406
No. Okay.
407
Alright, so here are your rights.
408
I'm going to read it to you.
409
If you don't understand something, I want you to tell me I don't understand that so I try to explain it to you.
410
Okay.
411
Because I want to ask you about what happened today, but I can't ask you anything until I read your rights.
412
Okay?
413
Okay.
414
You said your rights.
415
You have the right to remain silent and to refuse to answer questions.
416
Do you understand?
417
Yes.
418
Anything you say can be used against you in a court of law.
419
Do you understand?
420
Yes.
421
You have the right to speak with an attorney before speaking to the police
422
and to have an attorney present during questioning now or in the future.
423
Do you understand?
424
Yes.
425
If you can't afford an attorney, one will be appointed to represent you before any questioning, if you wish.
426
Do you understand?
427
Yes.
428
If you decide to answer questions now without an attorney present, you still have the right to stop answering at any time.
429
and speak with an attorney.
430
Do you understand?
431
Yes.
432
In regards to this investigation, have you previously asked any police officer to speak with the attorney?
433
Yeah.
434
Do you understand your rights that I explained to you?
435
Yes you understand that I made no threats or promises to you.
436
Yes.
437
And you're willing to answer questions without an attorney present?
438
No. No, you want an attorney?
439
Yes.
440
Okay.
441
All right, my friends.
442
You have a good one, all right?
443
Can I make a call?
444
Not from here.
445
You get booked?
446
In a few, I'm going to bring somebody to take photos of you.
447
and get a DNA swab from you?
448
And then you get transported and once you get to the jail, then from there you can make a phone call.
449
Okay.
450
Okay?
451
Alright, good luck to you.
452
Thank you.
453
- - Thank you.
454
Bye.
455
Wow.
456
How long do you think it'll take me to be transported? About an hour?
457
- Okay.
458
- All right, do you need anything?
459
Any water or anything?
460
Uh, yeah, have you had any water or anything?
461
Yeah.
462
I'm just gonna walk through it.
463
Since Darian invoked his right to remain silent, the detective obviously couldn't go any further with the interrogation.
464
The crime scene technicians later came into the room to take pictures and collect swabs of DNA.
465
Darian was then taken to the Broward County Jail.
466
Just days later, a judge found there was probable cause and ruled to hold Darian without bond.
467
In August of 2024, Darian Turner pleaded not guilty to first -degree murder with a deadly weapon.
468
Online court records show he's still behind bars.
469
His next court hearing is on the calendars for August 20th.
470
inside the crime.
471
I'm Elizabeth Milner and we'll see you back here tomorrow with another case.

Mastering the Shadowing Technique with This Video
Shadowing—repeating speech immediately after the speaker—is a powerful way to improve English pronunciation. Here’s how to use it with this video:
Step 1: Listen and Analyze
Watch the video once to grasp the context. Notice the pace: the 911 call is fast, with overlapping voices. Identify stressed words (e.g., "right now," "shot") to mimic natural intonation.
Step 2: Break It Down
Pause the video after short phrases (2-3 seconds). Use a shadowing app to record yourself repeating them. Focus on matching the speaker’s rhythm and urgency.
Step 3: Practice with Emotion
The dialogue is charged with stress and urgency. Shadow speech while channeling that emotion—this helps with fluency and natural expression.
Step 4: Compare and Adjust
Play back your recording alongside the video. Note differences in pronunciation (e.g., "detectives" vs. "detec-tives") and adjust. Repeat until your speech aligns with the original.
This video’s real-life tension makes it a dynamic tool for mastering the shadowing technique—turning everyday content into a practice opportunity.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
