Kenneth Bunn, 27, was found shot to death on March 16, 2020, at the Carlton Petty Road bridge over the Conasauga River in Murray County, Georgia. Investigators determined he had been shot at the location where his body was discovered, including a wound to the head.

Authorities focused on two people: Justin Payton Hooker, 20, and Nadya Catherine Swartz, 20. Swartz was Bunn’s ex-girlfriend and was then in a relationship with Hooker. According to the investigation, Swartz suggested killing Bunn and Hooker purchased a .22 caliber revolver from a family member. Swartz contacted Bunn and lured him to the secluded bridge; an argument there escalated and Hooker shot Bunn four times. Hooker and Swartz fled, taking Bunn’s cellphone, and a relative of Hooker reported the gun sale to police.

Both suspects were arrested within four days of the body’s discovery. The firearm used was never recovered; Hooker later said he disposed of it in a dumpster. Does anyone have information about Bunn’s movements in the days before March 16, 2020, or about the bridge area that could help clarify what happened?
