Jamie Wylie was a 31-year-old Caucasian man who was reported missing in December 2013. His body was found on March 25, 2014, in a ditch behind a business east of St. Cloud, Minnesota; an autopsy confirmed he died from gunshot wounds. The discovery devastated his hometown of Foley.

Investigators arrested two St. Cloud men in May 2014: 26-year-old Travis McKinney and 25-year-old Joshua Smith. A Benton County grand jury indicted McKinney on first- and second-degree murder, being a felon in possession of a firearm, and interfering with a dead body. Smith was indicted on aiding and abetting first- and second-degree murder. The criminal complaint alleged McKinney shot Wylie twice with a shotgun and that Smith drove the vehicle carrying Wylie, McKinney, and a witness.

Both men later entered guilty pleas and received prison sentences: Smith for aiding and abetting intentional second-degree murder and McKinney for aiding an offender after the fact, with Smith sentenced to just under 33 years and McKinney to 18 years. Did anyone in Foley or St. Cloud know Jamie or have information about his disappearance in December 2013?
