On June 20, 2015, Allen Pafford, 44, was found dead in his bedroom in Nodaway, Iowa. His mother called 911 about 11:19 a.m.; deputies from the Adams County Sheriff’s Office discovered Pafford on his knees, slouched with his head on the floor, a bed sheet wrapped around his head and neck, his hands bound with a blue nylon strap and his feet tied with rope attached to the hand restraints. An autopsy found a single gunshot wound to the back of his head; investigators recovered a fired 9mm casing and a bullet near the body and ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators traced the case to Hiawatha, Kansas, where two men, Jon Rubendall, 41, and James Bost, 39, were identified as suspects. Both men were arrested, initially pleaded not guilty, then in April 2016 pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and received mandatory 50-year prison terms.

Did anyone in Nodaway or Hiawatha know Allen Pafford or have information about the events leading up to that day?
