Daniel James Abbate was 20 when he was found dead in Decatur, Alabama, on Friday, August 26, 2022. His body was located partially concealed next to a dumpster at an apartment building, and the cause of death was gun violence.

Within days police identified two teen suspects. A 17-year-old was arrested, and another teenager, Justin Fuqua, later turned himself in. Both were charged with capital murder and booked into the Morgan County Jail, held without bond at the time of the initial charging. Reports have not provided a motive, detailed investigation findings, or the outcome of the criminal cases.

If anyone knew Daniel, saw activity around that apartment complex on or around August 26, 2022, or has information about the people involved, please come forward to assist the ongoing inquiry.
