Michael Barton, 47, of Poyner, Texas, was shot and killed on October 25, 2016 during a domestic disturbance. The shooting involved a family member: Barton’s brother-in-law, Travis Hollis Taylor, then 44, was arrested by Henderson County deputies shortly after the incident and later indicted on a murder charge in connection with Barton’s death.

Reports say the disturbance escalated into the fatal shooting; Taylor was taken into custody and the case proceeded through multiple hearings and investigations to establish the circumstances and culpability. The situation attracted attention because it began as a domestic dispute and involved close relatives.

Does anyone have information about Michael Barton, the events that led to the disturbance, or witnesses who were near Poyner on October 25, 2016?
