Stephen J. Perry, 55, a writer best known for his work on the 1980s animated series ThunderCats and Silverhawks, was reported missing from his Zephyrhills, Florida, home in early May 2010. Perry had been battling bladder cancer and struggling financially; he allowed James Davis and Roxanne Davis to move in to help with expenses.

On May 16, 2010, Perry’s van was found abandoned in a Quality Inn parking lot in Tampa. A severed arm discovered inside was later identified as Perry’s, and investigators recovered additional remains scattered across locations in Pasco and Hillsborough counties. James Davis, 45, who had a criminal history, was arrested on unrelated drug charges on May 21, 2010, and prosecutors later charged him with first-degree murder, alleging Perry was shot and dismembered with a reciprocating saw; motive was believed tied to pain medication and money.

Perry’s ex-girlfriend Krystal Carroll had sought emergency custody of their 5-year-old son, Leo, shortly before Perry disappeared, adding complexity to the case. Does anyone have information about Perry’s movements in early May 2010 or about the people who lived with him then?
