In the video, the man who appears to be Stephens asks Godwin, “Can you do me a favor?,” and then asks him to say a person’s name. (BuzzFeed News has chosen not to reveal the name.) Confused, the elderly man repeats the name, and then the shooter says, “She’s the reason, why, uh, this is about to happen to you.”

Godwin pleads briefly before he is shot, saying “I don’t know anybody by that name.” He is then shown lying on the ground with a long streak of blood besides his body.

A Facebook spokesperson said late Sunday that the video was recorded and uploaded, not streamed via Facebook Live as police initially reported. The spokesperson clarified that the suspect did use Facebook Live at one point, but did not stream the murder itself.
