Marvin Lance McCullough, a 55-year-old White man from Verona, Missouri, was found dead after being reported missing by his mother. His body was discovered inside the trunk of a burned-out car on March 11, 2025; the vehicle, registered to his mother, had been towed from a rural road and later located at a towing facility in Shell Knob. Investigators say McCullough had been shot in the back of the head inside Brandy Coburn’s camper and that his body remained there for three days before being moved.

Two people, Brandy Coburn, 34, of Verona, and Jimmy Taylor, 46, of Exeter, were arrested and charged with first-degree murder, armed criminal action, abandonment of a corpse, and tampering with physical evidence; both were held in the Barry County Jail without bond. Accounts differ on who fired the fatal shot: Coburn has alleged Taylor used her deceased grandmother’s silver handgun with a pearl handle, while Taylor has said Coburn shot McCullough while his attention was diverted. Blood found in Coburn’s camper matched McCullough by DNA, and a second witness is alleged to have helped place the body in the car before it was towed to a remote spot and set on fire.

Does anyone have information about McCullough’s movements in the days before March 11, 2025, or about activity around Coburn’s camper?
