Mitchell Clay Smith, 36, was found dead on April 28, 2020, in Leon, West Virginia, after being reported missing the previous day. State troopers discovered his body and investigators quickly treated the case as a homicide.

Authorities say Smith and two others, Franklin Long, 21, and Samantha Young, 29, went to an abandoned house in Leon to conduct a drug deal. Giles Hysell, 41, who was hiding inside the house, is accused of shooting Smith. Hysell was arrested and charged with murder and held without bail; Long and Young were later charged in connection with the incident.
