America Nguyen was 22 when he and his 61-year-old father, Duong Nguyen, were found dead in their Bealeton, Virginia, home on Salisbury Lane. Family members discovered the bodies on November 9, 2018, after America’s mother and sister, who were visiting Vietnam, could not reach them and asked a friend to check on the house. Deputies entered through an unlocked door and found both victims with multiple gunshot wounds to their upper torsos.

Investigators believe the killings occurred sometime between the evening of November 7 and the morning of November 8; America’s last known communication was a social media message on the evening of the 7th. There were no signs of forced entry, and authorities have said that could indicate the victims knew their killer or that the perpetrator was familiar with the area. The Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office, with FBI assistance, has not announced any arrests and the motive remains unknown. A reward of up to $20,000 is being offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

If anyone knew America or Duong, their routines, acquaintances, or saw anything unusual in that neighborhood the night of November 7–8, please contact the investigators handling the case.
