John Jay Robles, 46, of Mechanicsville, Virginia, was found dead inside a construction-site trailer at Lancer Park on the Longwood University campus in Farmville on the evening of April 6, 2013. Virginia State Police and Longwood University Police determined Robles had been fatally shot and a firearm was recovered at the scene.

Investigators identified 52-year-old Darryl N. Elmore of Hurt, Virginia, the site manager who was living in a trailer on the site, as a suspect. Elmore was taken into custody and initially charged with voluntary manslaughter, reckless handling of a firearm, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon; the manslaughter charge was later amended to second-degree murder. The defense indicated the trial, which began in Prince Edward County Circuit Court in November 2013, would center on ballistics and the weapon’s proximity to determine whether the shooting was accidental or intentional.

Does anyone have additional details or contacts who might shed light on what happened to John Robles?
