Joseph Thomas Hooley, a 66-year-old man from Emporia, Virginia who had Alzheimer’s disease, was reported missing in late summer 2014. The search ended on August 15, 2014, when his body was located and investigators determined he had been fatally shot. His death was classified as a homicide.

The killing turned a missing-person case into a murder investigation, but the case later went cold. The circumstances that led to him being shot have not been publicly resolved.

Did anyone in or around Emporia in August 2014 see anything that could help explain what happened to Joseph Hooley?
