James David Porter III, 22, was found dead on a secluded dirt stretch of Old Orangeburg Road in Lexington, South Carolina, in the late hours of August 3, 2015. A passerby discovered his body near midnight; investigators reported multiple gunshot wounds. His cell phone, recovered at the scene, contained text messages that drew police attention to Charles Alton Morehouse. DNA from a cigarette butt at the scene matched Morehouse, and cell phone data placed him at the scene.

Authorities say Morehouse believed Porter was a police informant and that he and Wiley Eugene Sisk, III, were present when Porter was killed. Morehouse was arrested within 24 hours; a search of his home turned up methamphetamine and a large amount of cash and led to additional drug charges against him and his wife, Crystal Elizabeth Morehouse. Both Morehouse and Sisk were charged with murder and later convicted.

Did anyone in Lexington know Porter or see him on the night of August 3, 2015?
