Two Central Florida men have been indicted for murder after a fatal shooting at a Kissimmee birthday party.
An Osceola County grand jury formally indicted 41-year-old Maximo Mercado and 29-year-old Liam Nicholson for First Degree Murder (with a Firearm) for fatally shooting a man at a birthday party.
On January 21, 2024, the suspects attended a birthday party at a home in Osceola County.
As they were leaving, a physical altercation occurred involving 31-year-old Steven Perez. Perez was shot and killed.
The State presented sufficient evidence to a grand jury to secure First Degree Murder (with a Firearm) indictments against Mercado and Nicholson.
LIAM NICHOLSON DID NOT SHOOT ANYONE. HE ATTEMPTED TO DIFUSE THE SITUATION. MR. MERCADO HAS ADMITTED AS MUCH. WHY IS MR. BAIN DOING THIS.
They both deserve everything they have coming to them. I hope they rot in jail.
Liam Nicholson did not attempt to kill anyone he was at the wrong place at the wrong time , he did in fact try to disguise the situation while also trying to protect himself! Prayer is key I pray for the family and justice but I also pray that it’s seen that Mr. Nicholson did not wish this to happen at all .

Are you joking? Stop trying to make Liam seem like he’s innocent as if he jus happened to be a good guy who was at the wrong place at the wrong time… ? Liam is a terrible person. I hope he never comes out of prison.
