Ivan Scott Strayer II was 33 when he was fatally shot on October 11, 2016, while staying at the Wingate Inn in Vineland, New Jersey. Strayer, from Gallitzin, Pennsylvania, was working as a laborer for Osmose Utilities Service and was found in his hotel room after being shot three times while he slept.

Investigators arrested a co-worker, Larry John Pulcine Jr., then 36 and from Duncansville, Pennsylvania. Two pistols recovered in a field behind the hotel were linked to Pulcine; a .40-caliber Beretta was identified as the murder weapon. In June 2019 a jury found Pulcine guilty of first-degree murder and related weapons charges, and he faced a sentence of 30 years to life. Strayer’s family attended the three-week trial.

If anyone has information about Strayer, his time in Vineland, or the events that led to that night, please share what is known.
