Ronald Franklin Kirby, 69, was found fatally shot inside his Alexandria, Virginia, home on the afternoon of November 11, 2013. A relative discovered him unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds to the torso; paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene and the medical examiner ruled his death a homicide. His wife had seen him that morning and they spoke by phone before she left for an appointment; an adult son arrived for lunch and found the body.
Investigators reported no signs of forced entry or robbery, suggesting Kirby likely opened the door to his killer. Detectives noted the use of a .22 caliber firearm, an unusual detail that later linked this killing to two other Alexandria homicides. The case connected to murders in 2003 and 2014, and a surviving caregiver in one attack provided a description that became a key break.
Does anyone have information about Kirby, his routines, or anyone who might have been at his home that day?
