On Saturday, June 20, 2020, Gainesville, Fla., native Natisha Covert and her friends planned to attend an out-of-town concert, but at the last minute noticed a Facebook post about a block party in nearby Waldo. Just hours later in the noisy, dark, early-morning chaos of the outdoor gathering, Natisha Covert would be dead, shot through the heart with a bullet intended for someone else. Who pulled the trigger and why, remains unknown.
