In the evening of June 16, 2016, 19-year-old Gregory Alan Delong was found dead in the driver’s seat of a car parked at the Carriage House Apartments in Virginia Beach, Virginia. A passerby reported blood coming from his nose and ears; what was first treated as a possible cardiac arrest became a homicide investigation.

Police say the killing occurred during a drug deal that turned into a robbery. Investigators allege Harold Vincent Cole Jr., 30, and a 17-year-old male arranged to meet Delong for a drug transaction with the intent to rob him. The juvenile was later identified as Malik Brown.

Court proceedings followed: a jury in January 2018 convicted Harold Vincent Cole Jr. of first-degree murder, robbery, use of a firearm, and conspiracy and sentenced him to 29 years. Malik Brown, as a juvenile at the time, pleaded guilty and received an 18-year sentence under his plea agreement.

Did anyone who knew Gregory notice his movements in Virginia Beach around mid-June 2016?
