Chester Griffin, 39, was killed in Collins, Mississippi, on June 21, 2014. His death was ruled a homicide; authorities say he was shot and then set on fire. Early investigation efforts were hampered by a lack of eyewitnesses and limited physical evidence, which made reconstructing the crime difficult.

Investigators later named a person of interest described as having a history of violent behavior and a possible motive. That led to an arrest and murder charges, and reports from the time indicate Griffin’s wife was also arrested and that bail was set for a woman charged in the case. The primary defendant’s trial ended in a hung jury and a mistrial after the defense raised doubts about the prosecution’s evidence.

The case remains unresolved and the investigation is still open as law enforcement periodically reviews the evidence. Did anyone in Collins around June 2014 see or hear anything that could help bring closure to Griffin’s family?
