Derrick Davion Ruff, 25, of Greensboro, was last seen December 18, 2018, along with his friend Joshua Lee Jackson, also 25. Families reported them missing after they did not return, and a search that began with those reports ended in March 2019 when both men’s bodies were found inside a storage unit in Lawrenceville, Georgia. Both victims had been shot to death.

Investigators from Gwinnett County, Athens-Clarke County, and the FBI tied the murders to Gangster Disciples internal conflict. Authorities say suspects wrongly believed Ruff and Jackson were cooperating with law enforcement and lured them under the pretext of stealing from storage units. A grand jury indicted five people — Lesley Chappelle Green, Shabazz Larry Guidry, Robert Maurice Carlisle, Philmon Deshawn Chambers, and Justin Jamal Davis — on charges that included malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, concealing a death, and violations of the Georgia Street Gang Terrorism Prevention Act. The indictment alleges Chambers ordered the killings and describes torture prior to the shootings; wiretaps and other evidence were cited in the investigation.

If anyone knew Derrick, Joshua, where they spent time, or has information about who saw them after December 18, 2018, please come forward.
