Ernest Bob Decker Jr., 52, and his son David, 32, were last seen at Bob’s home about 10 miles south of Waynesburg in Brown Township, Ohio. The last known contact was a call from Bob saying he was going for physical therapy for a work-related rotator cuff injury. Family reported them missing on December 15, 2006, after two days of unanswered calls.

An anonymous tip led investigators to Bob’s pickup in a wooded area; the driver’s door was unlocked, keys in the ignition, and Bob’s eyeglasses splattered with his blood, suggesting a violent encounter. Their trailer showed no signs of forced entry or a struggle. Attention focused on Randy Kedigh, who rented a trailer from Bob and had recently argued with him over a bad rent check. In September 2008 parts of a red 1997 Mercury Tracer David had been driving were found in a shed near Kedigh’s trailer and the car’s roof was located outside the trailer.

There has been no activity on the men’s bank accounts or cell phones and no charges were filed as of the last reported developments. Did anyone in the area see the Tracer or the men around December 2006?
