Thomas King was a 31-year-old Taco Casa employee in Fort Worth, Texas, who was reported missing on April 14, 2026, after he did not return home from his shift the night before. King, who had a cognitive disability and whose family said it was highly unusual for him to disappear, was last seen at work near Interstate 30 and East Loop 820. His Hyundai Sonata was later located at a Quality Inn on I-20 in Arlington.

Surveillance footage from the motel reportedly showed a man arriving in King’s car late on April 13 wearing a Taco Casa jacket; police identified that man as 34-year-old coworker Gregory D. Lewis, who was staying at the motel with his girlfriend. Detectives found King’s body about 20 feet inside a tree line on Fort Worth’s east side; he had been shot in the head, a fired 9mm cartridge casing was found nearby, and investigators said it appeared he had been dragged into the woods.

King’s family described him as a loving father who cared for his children and who was trusting despite his limitations. Does anyone have information about King’s movements on April 13 or about interactions between him and coworkers at the Taco Casa that night?
