Edward Purvis III, 35, was found shot to death in a northeast Albuquerque motel room on the morning of April 9, 2021. Investigators found a scene that suggested a violent struggle: a pillow described as damaged and another stained with blood.

Detectives identified 26-year-old Dylan Wolfe as a suspect after determining Wolfe owed Purvis money for drugs and had arranged to meet him under the pretense of a purchase with the intent to kill him. Investigators cited a series of internet searches Wolfe allegedly made in the days before the killing, including queries about whether a pillow can muffle a nine millimeter, what percentage of murders go unsolved, and where to sell a gun; those searches were used to link him to the crime.

In July 2023 Wolfe was arrested and charged with murder. Does anyone have information about Purvis’s movements or contacts in Albuquerque in the days before April 9, 2021?
