Do you know who murdered 30 year old Dean Johnson II in 2010? On December 11, 2010, 30-year-old Dean Johnson II was shot and killed outside a bar in Eustis, Florida known as "The Gray Building." The incident occurred just after midnight at the intersection of Wall Street and Dixie Avenue. Dean was shot multiple times by an unidentified assailant believed to be a Black male. The attack happened outside the popular local bar after an evening that seemed otherwise uneventful, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
The Lake County Sheriff's Office has been actively investigating this case, yet it remains unsolved with no suspects publicly identified. Detectives have made several appeals for information from the public, hoping that someone might come forward with details that could lead to the arrest of the individual responsible. Despite these efforts, the case has not progressed, and it remains a cold case in the community of Eustis.
Dean Johnson II's death has left a significant mark on the Eustis community, with family and friends still seeking answers for what happened that night. The lack of security measures or witnesses willing to testify has hindered the investigation, and authorities continue to encourage anyone with knowledge about the events of that evening to contact the Sheriff's Office or provide tips anonymously through Crimeline. The family hopes that with renewed public awareness, the person responsible for this violent act will be brought to justice.
