It was Wednesday, they all said, and Chris should have been there.

On any other Wednesday, Richard Yeager - known as "Chris" by virtually everyone who knew him - would have been seated at the table by the small stage in the back of GrandPre's on North Rampart Street for the bar's popular karaoke night, which he co-hosted for the last few years.

Regular visitors would have had their names placed in the queue upon entrance, and would get their turns to select from the seemingly unending catalog of karaoke songs at Yeager's disposal.

But this Wednesday, despite a packed house at GrandPre's, there was no music --- and no Chris.

"It's really weird," said Darrius Summers, who served as MC during karaoke nights. "He was a big part of this family."

When he wasn't hosting karaoke night, the 35-year-old Huntsville, Ala., native delivered pizzas at a Domino's in Mid-City. He was shot to death around midnight Monday (Sept. 22), just after delivering a pizza to an apartment in the 2800 block of St. Louis Street.

New Orleans police have accused two 16-year-old boys -- one of whom was fitted with a court-ordered electronic monitoring device -- of killing Yeager in either a carjacking or an armed robbery.

court-ordered electronic monitoring device didn't stop this teenage thug from committing violent crimes two nights in a row.
