Joseph Skyler Burnley, 27, from Rankin County, Mississippi, went missing on June 3, 2016, after helping friends look for a stolen truck. That morning Burnley was with Travis Brewer and Brewer’s girlfriend Amanda Morris; they used a phone tracking feature that led them to woods outside Brandon. Surveillance footage shows Burnley at a nearby gas station about 9:48 a.m. Brewer and Burnley split up to search while Morris stayed in the car with her child. Brewer returned later without Burnley; the abandoned truck was found but not Burnley’s phone.

Friends waited about 15 hours before reporting Burnley missing. Days afterward Brewer’s phone was recovered near his house, not where the group said they had been searching. Authorities describe the case as suspicious and have treated it as a potential homicide. Brewer has been labeled a person of interest and investigators have explored a possible link to the local gang Simon City Royals and allegations that Burnley might have been killed in retaliation for stealing drugs. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved.

If anyone knew Joseph, his movements that day, or has information about the search for the truck, please share what is known.
