On July 21, 2022, Jay Scott Campbell, 53, was found dead from multiple gunshot wounds in his pick-up truck near a home on Buzzard View Place in Shenandoah, Virginia. His son, Justice Campbell, was also shot and seriously injured; he required surgery for multiple gunshot wounds. Responding officers from multiple agencies located Jay Campbell in the vehicle and later found Justice Campbell nearby.

Authorities arrested 47-year-old Scott Edward Simandl at the scene without incident. Investigators reported finding a large number of rifles and ammunition at Simandl’s residence, and no firearms were found in Campbell’s truck. Simandl was charged with first-degree murder, aggravated malicious wounding, and two counts of using a firearm in the commission of a felony and was being held without bond; a grand jury later returned indictments in January 2023.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who remember anything from that day or who knew the Campbells or Simandl?
