A Lantana man murdered late Sunday outside a convenience store spoke to the shooter and shook his hand moments before he was gunned down in an alleyway, according to an arrest report.

McIntosh Pierre-Paul, 25, of Lake Worth, and Jean Mary Marcherno, 20, of suburban Boynton Beach, appeared in court Wednesday morning and were ordered held without bond on charges that include first-degree murder.

Marcherno is accused of firing the shot that killed Justin VanMeter, a 28-year-old father of a 3-month-old son. VanMeter may have been robbed for the $100 in tip money he received after working a shift as a server at the Cracker Barrel in Boynton Beach.

Cracker Barrel officials were not immediately available for comment on Wednesday.

Surveillance video obtained from the Hypoluxo Food Market shows VanMeter walking into the convenience store at Hypoluxo Road and San Castle Boulevard on Sunday about 10:45 p.m. and counting his money at the counter, the report states.

VanMeter is seen shaking hands with Marcherno then speaking to him again outside the store. The report states the video shows no sign of an altercation or argument between the men before VanMeter walks away into an alleyway east of the store.

According to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, Marcherno hops into the passenger seat of a white Mazda that is driven by Pierre-Paul, who follows VanMeter into the alleyway.

A muzzle flash is seen just before the Mazda emerges from the alleyway and heads east toward San Castle Boulevard.

VanMeter walked back to the front of the store where he is found asking for help and saying he can’t breathe, the report said. VanMeter was taken to Delray Medical Center and died about 11:15 p.m.

PBSO learned the identities of Marcherno and Pierre-Paul through law enforcement officers who saw the video and were familiar with the two men.

The Mazda was located Monday night parked outside the Motel 6 at 1310 W. Lantana Road. The vehicle was registered to Angela Lavallo, who was found inside a room along with Marcherno and Pierre-Paul.

During questioning, Lavallo admitted to being in the Mazda at the time of the shooting. She told PBSO that Marcherno got out of the vehicle in the alleyway just before she heard a gunshot.

Pierre-Paul told PBSO that he followed VanMeter into the alleyway because Marcherno wanted to speak with him. Pierre-Paul said he was an unwilling participant and that he should not have allowed Marcherno back into the car after the shooting.

But the report states that Pierre-Paul turned off the car and lights after finding VanMeter in the alleyway and that Pierre-Paul never attempted to call 911 or render assistance after the shooting.

During an interview with detectives, Marcherno first said he was with friends in Orlando at the time of the crime.

Marcherno then changed his story after seeing the surveillance video and claimed VanMeter had asked if he sold drugs. Marcherno said he confronted VanMeter to ask why he thought Marcherno was a drug dealer when a physical confrontation ensued. Marcherno said he was grabbed around the neck, causing him to pull out a gun in self defense and shoot VanMeter in the chest.

Marcherno admitted he then grabbed VanMeter’s cellphone and money and fled the area in the Mazda.

The report states that Marcherno’s story "is not consistent with the evidence." An autopsy ruled that VanMeter was shot in the back while facing away from Marcherno. Marcherno also did not have an explanation why he robbed VanMeter, PBSO said.

Online fundraising pages seeking to raise $15,000 for VanMeter’s funeral expenses and to support his girlfriend and child had raised roughly $1,700 as of Wednesday afternoon.
