Malcolm Euron Palmer, 44, was found dead in his green 1994 Nissan Altima on the morning of August 29, 2009, near the edge of a wooded area in Accomack County, Virginia. He died of a single gunshot wound to the head. Investigators found his wallet discarded in the woods about a tenth of a mile from the car and noted an undisclosed amount of money was missing; his cell phone was never recovered.

Authorities noted the scene’s proximity to a farming labor camp, but that lead did not immediately identify a suspect. Years later the Virginia State Police updated the case status to Closed - Exception, Death of Offender, meaning a suspect was identified but could not be prosecuted because the person had died. No further details about the suspect or the circumstances of that person’s death have been released.

If anyone knew Malcolm, saw his Nissan on August 29, 2009, or has information about the missing phone, please come forward.
