James J. Hundley, 78, was found shot and dead inside a Mitchell Street house in Knoxville on the morning of February 6, 2010, after spending the previous night at a rental property he was renovating. His son discovered the slightly ajar door and his father lying cold on the floor; paramedics confirmed a gunshot death and the Knoxville Police Department opened a homicide investigation.

Hundley, known in the neighborhood as the Money Man for often carrying cash to help tenants cash checks and collect rent, was frequently seen driving a gray pickup truck around the first of each month. Investigators say they believe robbery was the motive. A witness reported two men in their early twenties leaving the residence and getting into a car: one taller white man and one shorter Black man. No arrests had been announced and the case remained unsolved.

Police followed up with renewed canvassing on Mitchell Street in October 2019 as they sought fresh leads. Does anyone who lived on or near Mitchell Street in 2010 remember seeing those two men or that gray pickup around February 5 or 6?
