Robert Cawthon was 34 when his body was found on January 12, 1984, in a wooded area near Baker, Florida, about two miles west of Highway 4. He had suffered a fatal gunshot wound, was partially clothed, and his body had been set on fire. His car was discovered abandoned behind an old cemetery on Old Bethel Road. Investigators described the scene as violent and deliberate. The killing remains unsolved and is listed among the cold cases in Okaloosa County.

Anyone with information about Robert, his movements in early January 1984, or the vehicle left near the cemetery is asked to share what they know.
