There is a $1,000 reward out for another suspect in the killing that remains free, Pottstown’s Derrick Goins, 26.

Kyshan Brinkley 23, and Jacquan Lee, 26, both of Pottstown, had already been taken into custody for the murder.

One of the members of "BGB" planned to buy Percocets from Robinson, according to the grand jury presentment. The presentment indicated that Robinson had told multiple people in the months leading up to his death that had concerns both about the gang and about that specific planned transaction. Robinson told a friend that BGB was responsible for the shooting death of Darryl "Omar" McMillan back in Nov. 2018.
In addition, Robinson apparently believed he himself was on a "list" of individuals that the gang planned to kill, according to the presentment.
