Kevin Middleton Dial, 36, was one of nine people killed during a shooting spree in Atlanta on July 29, 1999. The assailant, Mark O. Barton, entered the offices of Momentum Securities, where Dial was among those shot, then crossed the street to All-Tech Investment Group and continued firing. Thirteen others were reported injured in the two attacks.

The rampage followed earlier killings in Barton’s Stockbridge home, where he murdered his wife Leigh Ann and his two children, Matthew and Mychelle, before traveling to Atlanta. Barton used a .45-caliber Colt 1911A1 and a 9mm Glock 17 during the office shootings and left notes blaming others for severe financial losses from day trading; those notes also included statements about taking his children’s lives. A city-wide manhunt ended when Barton died by a self-inflicted gunshot at a gas station in Acworth, leaving no arrests in the office homicides.

Does anyone have information about Kevin Dial’s life, work, or connections at Momentum Securities that could help remember him or provide context for his time there?
