"The men who kicked down the door of Louisiana National Guard member Jemond Cador's Terrytown apartment mistakenly believed he'd be an "easy target" for their armed robbery scheme, according to Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office Homicide Detective Steven Quaintance.

"He's a [video] gamer, he'll have weed in the house, and he's not going to fight back," Quaintance said, quoting the robbery's alleged mastermind, Myron Lee, 20, a fellow Guard member and a friend of Cador's.

But they were wrong. Cador, 21, did fight back, prompting Lee's co-conspirator, Gerald Little, 18, to open fire, shooting Cador seven times, according to authorities.

With the robbery gone awry, Lee, Little and two other men allegedly fled, taking nothing from Cador's apartment.

Quaintance appeared in Jefferson Parish Magistrate Court on Feb. 3 to provide testimony about his investigation into Cador's murder during a preliminary hearing in the case.

Lee, Little, Isaiah White, 20, Kewane Edwards, 21, and Matthew Smith, 20, have all been booked with first-degree murder in connection with the shooting."
