About this Case:
Covington was found dead in the 5900 block of US 85 on the night of November 8, 2008 at 11:30pm. An autopsy report revealed he died of blunt-force trauma to the head and had fractures in his left fingers. The case is being investigated as a possible hit-and-run accident, but investigators have not ruled out other scenarios, including assault or falling into the road. On that night, around 9:00-9:30pm, Covington was seen leaving a wedding at El Jardin restaurant near East 72nd Avenue and Colorado 2 wearing a black suit. He left in a car with a female companion. A minor argument with the female companion led him to get out of the car and start walking. He text-messaged a friend at about 10:30pm and was last seen walking on the shoulder of U.S. 85, going south in the northbound lanes. Anyone with information regarding this case, is asked to please contact the Commerce City Police Department.
