Douglas Wayne Attaway, 59, was found shot to death in the basement of his Hardage Farm Drive home in Marietta, Georgia, on Saturday, September 29, 2018. The first report came from his 24-year-old son, Daniel Walden Attaway, who called 911 saying he had found his father. Police found Douglas deceased from gunshot wounds, including a fatal shot between the eyes described as execution-style.

Investigators quickly shifted focus from an unknown intruder to the son who made the call. The murder weapon was identified as a 9mm handgun from the family’s collection. Reports say the motive stemmed from an argument over Daniel’s future after his father told him to get a job or move out. Daniel was arrested on October 2, 2018, and later confessed to his mother and sister that he had killed his father.

If anyone knew Douglas, his family, or was in that Marietta neighborhood on September 29, 2018, please share any information that could help clarify what happened.
