Joe Frierson IV was 37 when he was found fatally shot in a grassy area on Walker Street in Atlanta’s Castleberry Hill neighborhood the evening of September 28, 2013. Police discovered his body while working an unrelated matter. The motive and any suspects had not been identified by early October 2013.

Frierson was a high school social studies teacher then working at M.L. King High School and had previously taught at Clarkston High School. He was married to Shariah and helped care for his parents. He also performed as a rapper known as Bravo Young.

Investigators located several surveillance cameras near the scene but later determined none were recording that night because of a technical problem with the vendor who installed them. Some of Frierson’s belongings — a watch, bracelet, and necklace — were missing, while his wallet, cell phone, and wedding ring remained.

If anyone knew Joe, saw him in Castleberry Hill on September 28, 2013, or has information about those items, please come forward.
