Two Lansing residents, Timothy Ryan Galbraith and Trisha Leslie Bos, have been charged with murder, tampering with evidence, and related crimes after the bodies of Raequan Brown and Lance Pollo were found in separate locations in Mid-Michigan during early 2025. Authorities say both victims were shot and killed in Lansing, with their bodies then transported to conceal the crimes.

Why it matters

This case highlights the ongoing challenges law enforcement faces in solving complex homicide cases, especially when the perpetrators go to great lengths to cover up their crimes. It also raises concerns about public safety in the Lansing area and the need for continued cooperation between local and state police agencies.

The details

According to Michigan State Police, Raequan Brown's body was found by hunters in a wooded area, while Lance Pollo's body was discovered near an abandoned and burned house. Authorities determined that Brown was killed first in Lansing, with his body then transported to the wooded area. Shortly after, Pollo was also shot and killed in Lansing, with his body placed near the abandoned home, which was then set on fire in an apparent attempt to destroy evidence.

  • On February 10, 2025, Pollo's body was found in the burned-out, abandoned home.
  • Around the same time, Brown was reported missing to the Lansing Police Department.
  • On March 25, 2025, Brown's body was discovered by hunters in a wooded area.
