An 18-year-old man has been charged with the murder of a couple who were shot during a phony car sale that was arranged online, police say.

Joseph Roland, 39, and his wife Jossline Roland, 40, leave behind five children after they were shot dead outside an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado, while trying to buy an SUV. 

The couple were carrying $3,000 in cash to pay for the RAV4 that was advertised by Kyree Brown on app Letgo when he allegedly shot them dead and took the money after meeting them at 11pm on August 14. 

Brown has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder after allegedly admitting to shooting the parents, the Denver Post reported.

Aurora Police said that Brown and an unnamed friend stole a 2017 Toyota Rav4 from Denver's Montbello neighborhood.  

Brown then posted an advert for the stolen car on letgo - a website for buying used goods - under a fake name, the affidavit reads. 

Joe, who was an operations manager at ABM Industries and 'flipped' vehicles for a living, responded to the ad and agreed to buy the car.  

He arranged to meet Brown in Southlands Mall car park with his wife, who was a firm administrator at Dianne Sawaya law offices.

Brown told investigators he drove to meet Joe at the mall but when they arrived he told the couple he had accidentally brought the wrong car title and asked them to follow him across town to an apartment on East Cornell Circle. 

The two cars parked up at the address and Brown got out of his car and went to the driver's side window of the Roland's vehicle, the affidavit states.

Brown told authorities he pointed a 9mm handgun at Joe while the couple were still in their car and demanded the money.  

Brown said Joe grabbed his arm and the car started moving, the affidavit states.

The suspect intentionally shot Joe before accidentally shooting Jossline, the arrest affidavit claims.

Brown then allegedly grabbed the $3,000 cash from the car dashboard, jumped back in the stolen vehicle and fled the scene.

He then tried to burn the car by pouring gasoline on the seats and setting it alight, authorities said.

Emergency services responded to reports of a shooting just before midnight and the Rolands were rushed to hospital.

The couple died within five minutes of each other, CBS Denver reported. 

Police tracked down Brown by finding the letgo listing on Joe's cellphone. 

Brown had used a fake name but used a Gmail account that detectives were able to link him to. 

Police said that his mobile number was then found through the online goods website. 

The phone had pinged towers near the mall, apartment complex where the couple were shot and the location where the car was burned, near Havana Street and East Colfax Avenue, police said. 

Investigators then traced the cellphone to its current location in the 2300 block of North Elmira Street where they located Brown. 

He was detained on August 27 after a short police chase, which ended near 29th Avenue and Central Park Boulevard in Denver.

The Rolands' devastated family released a statement saying they are 'in shock and disbelief' and thanking the Aurora Police Department for apprehending the suspect. 

'The extended family of Joseph and Jossline Roland are still in shock and disbelief about the loss of both Jossline and Joe to a senseless act of violence,' the statement reads.

'Joe and Jossline are survived by their five children who are being loved and cared for by the extended family.'

The family statement added: 'Joe and Jossline are irreplaceable and will be dearly missed. Your continued support, respect for privacy, and prayers are most appreciated in this time of unimaginable loss and grief.' 

A funeral service was held for the couple Monday and streamed virtually due to COVID-19. 
A fundraiser has been set up by friend of the couple Brittany Southerland to raise funds for their five children.

It reads: 'Anyone who knew Joe and Jossline would remember they were always the first to help. They were the best people you could know and their door was always open to friends and family.

'We would like to raise money for their children. No amount of money can replace what they've lost, but maybe we can pull together and provide some financial security for them.'

Dianne Sawaya law firm paid tribute to Jossline in a statement on its website and described her death as an 'immeasurable loss'. 

'Jossline Roland, the Firm Administrator, firm 'mom' and superhero tragically passed away,' it reads.

'Jossline was not only the world's best Firm Administrator, but she was also my friend and right hand. She was my 'Go-to' and confidant. She will be missed tremendously by me, the firm, and by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.'

The statement added: 'Jossline – we love you, we thank you, and may everlasting peace be upon you.'

On Friday, August 14, Joe and Jossline Roland were senselessly murdered in Aurora, CO. They leave behind five sweet children.

Anyone who knew Joe and Jossline would remember they were always the first to help.

They were the best people you could know and their door was always open to friends and family.

We would like to raise money for their children. No amount of money can replace what they’ve lost, but maybe we can pull together and provide some financial security for them.

Thank you for any amount you can contribute whether large or small. Please share as well. 

Edit: I have received questions regarding my relationship to the Rolands. Joe was my husband’s best friend of 25+ years. They spoke every day. My husband is the godfather of two of the Rolands’ children. I instantly became close friends with Jossline when she began dating Joe. They were kind, fun, generous people. We have yet to meet anyone else like them and never will. They were special people who built a beautiful life and family together. Joe, Jossline, and their children are family to us. Our lives are all changed forever due to this senseless act of violence. We will miss them every day for the rest of our lives. Joe and Jossline’s main focus in life was their children, which is where our focus is as well. The family is building a trust for the children, which is where this money will be placed. We have permission from the family for this page. Thank you all for your overwhelming generosity and kindness.

  1. My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough. here is his Email: emutemple@gmail.com or call/text him on his WhatsApp +2347012841542
