Devin founded Element Beverage Company in 2016. His quick success even earned him a spot in Gambit's 2018 40 under 40 list. "Everything he put his mind to, he worked hard for it," his father, David Espadron said. In November 2019, at 22-years old, Devin's life was cut short. He was shot and killed in Audubon Park. The case remains unsolved. "Why would someone have shot him the way they did? We’re still trying to figure that out," Deverney said.
