Bryan Joseph Edwards, 47, was found dead in his Jacksonville Northside home on March 1, 2014, after family members reported not hearing from him for two days. A lifetime Jacksonville resident who worked at the Winn Dixie Warehouse for more than 20 years, he was remembered by his parents, children, siblings and friends and enjoyed fishing and supporting the Florida Gators.

Investigators determined Edwards had been shot during a robbery that occurred in the course of a planned drug transaction. The house had been ransacked and several items were missing, including a gold chain and a recently purchased camera. The camera was pawned the day after the murder; photos on it showed James Alfred Jacobsen and Rebecca Irene Brantley at the pawn shop and images of the interior of Edwards’ home. Jacobsen and Brantley, both 34, were charged in connection with the case, with Jacobsen later charged with murder and Brantley charged as an accessory to murder.

Anyone with information about Bryan Edwards, the transaction that brought the suspects to his home, or the missing items is asked to come forward.
