David Michael Pauley, 51, of Norfolk, Virginia, was killed on October 23, 2011, in Noble County, Ohio. Born August 17, 1960, in Philadelphia, he enjoyed NASCAR, Jeff Gordon, country music and fishing, and had been active with the Lighthouse Youth Center of Tabernacle Church of Norfolk as a teenager. He is survived by his son Wade Pauley, twin sister Debra Pauley Bruce, sister Linda Bryant, brother Richard Pauley and two grandchildren.

Authorities say Pauley was one of several men lured through Craigslist with false job offers and taken to southeastern Ohio, where Richard Beasley shot and buried him and two other victims, Ralph Geiger and Timothy Kern, in shallow graves in the woods. Scott Davis escaped and later testified against Beasley. Beasley was convicted of aggravated murder and related charges; his teenage accomplice Brogan Rafferty received a life sentence without parole.

Did anyone who knew David or who was in that area in October 2011 see signs of the men or recall unusual job offers being posted online?
