Antonio Rowvan Thompson, 41, of Greenville, South Carolina, was found shot to death in a rural, wooded area off Woods Road in northern Chester County on February 28, 2021. Investigators say he had been shot in the head and his body was left after an apparent attempt to conceal the crime.

Authorities report Thompson was a passenger in a Toyota pickup with three others near SC Highway 72 north and Cedarhurst Road when Kenneth Tyrone Wherry, then 46, shot him. The sheriff’s office described a robbery for money to buy crack cocaine as the reported motive, and said Thompson had asked Wherry for help with a disabled car before the shooting. Two other people in the truck, Lavondia Elisia Wherry, 49, and Mary Elizabeth Muckenfuss, 30, are accused of helping dispose of the body and of discarding Thompson’s phone, license and bank cards.

All three were arrested; Kenneth Tyrone Wherry faced murder and weapons charges, while Lavondia Elisia Wherry and Mary Elizabeth Muckenfuss were charged as accessories after the fact. Did anyone in the Chester County area know Thompson or have information about his movements that February?
