On the night of July 23, 2021, Leonard Gerloff, 59, and his wife Pauline Gerloff, 56, were fatally shot at their home on Muddy Water Lane north of Linn in Osage County, Missouri. Family members found the couple unresponsive in the front yard the following day; deputies pronounced them dead at the scene and estimated the killings occurred the previous evening.

Surveillance from a neighboring property shows Leonard arriving about 8:34 p.m., followed later by a Chevrolet truck that left around 9:00 p.m. Witnesses at the Twist-a-Top bar reported seeing a man identified as 62-year-old Warren Taylor leave that venue and head toward the Gerloff residence. Taylor, a long-time acquaintance of the couple from Chamois, was arrested roughly ten hours after the bodies were discovered and charged with two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of armed criminal action.

Has anyone in the area known the Gerloffs or observed activity around Muddy Water Lane that night?
