Donald Fogg, a 50-year-old White man and a chef, was found fatally shot in his Summer Street apartment in Beverly, Massachusetts on the evening of March 13, 2020. Police responded after a report of gunshots and discovered Fogg deceased at the scene, prompting a homicide investigation.

Investigators later focused on a 64-year-old man, Bruce Gunn, arrested about a month after the killing at his apartment on Cabot Street in Beverly. Prosecutors said Gunn had a long criminal history and that he was introduced to Fogg by the woman who cleaned Fogg’s apartment. Evidence presented at trial described a plan to rob Fogg: Gunn allegedly borrowed a gun, arranged to buy marijuana at Fogg’s home, and shot Fogg three times in the back after Fogg opened a safe containing cash and marijuana.

In December 2021 a jury found Bruce Gunn guilty of first-degree murder and the judge imposed the mandatory sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole. Did anyone in Beverly or the nearby area know Fogg’s routines or the cleaner who introduced him to visitors?
