Doris T. Puleio, 92, was shot and killed at her home on Bobwhite Road in Amherst County, Virginia, on June 25, 2019. Her daughter, 74-year-old Trudy Goetz, was also shot and seriously injured that day but survived the attack.

In July 2019 an 18-year-old, Justin Sales, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and malicious wounding. Those charges were dismissed in December 2021; the dismissal was tied to a witness who could not testify because of long-term effects of COVID-19, problems with chain of custody for evidence, and the loss of body camera footage in a cyber-attack.

Does anyone have information about the June 25, 2019 incident or knew Doris or Trudy and can help investigators fill in remaining gaps?
