Joseph Sanders was 33 when he was found in Saint Louis, Missouri, on the evening of September 2, 2017, under what authorities described as suspicious circumstances. An autopsy showed he died of multiple gunshot wounds, and the death was ruled a homicide.

The Saint Louis Police Department treated the case as a major investigation, identifying and questioning several people of interest. Investigators faced problems from the start: few eyewitnesses came forward and physical evidence from the scene was limited, which complicated efforts to build a clear case.

Over the following months and years there were periodic developments, including arrests and charges filed in connection with Sanders’s death, but many charges were later dropped when evidence proved insufficient. The killing remains unresolved and his family continues to seek answers.

Did anyone in the Saint Louis area have information or remember seeing Joseph or anything suspicious around September 2, 2017?
