Dustin Brown Wilder, a 29-year-old Caucasian man, was found dead in his Sloan, Iowa, home on the morning of January 9, 2015. A dog sitter discovered him unresponsive in the kitchen; responders pronounced him dead at the scene. An autopsy later determined the cause of death was a gunshot wound to the head and the death was investigated as a homicide.

Wilder had been at the Sloan Tap the night before and reportedly left with Timothy Rodger Schroeder and Schroeder’s wife, Amanda. Amanda Schroeder told investigators she and another man had heard Timothy talk about committing a robbery or doing something big or kill someone. She testified that after entering Wilder’s home her husband pushed her aside, she heard a gunshot, saw a gun in his hand, and saw Wilder on the floor. Timothy Rodger Schroeder, then 29, was arrested on a parole violation and later charged with first-degree murder, going armed with intent, and being a felon in possession of a firearm. Investigators asked for public help locating Wilder’s missing black tri-fold billfold as evidence.

If anyone knew Wilder’s movements that night or has information about the missing billfold, please share what is known.
