Gregory Lee Holley Sr., 55, was fatally shot while walking his dog on the evening of February 20, 2013, in his Woodbridge, Virginia neighborhood. A retired federal agent and active church member, he was described as devoted to his family; his wife and four sons survived him.

A struggle followed and Holley was shot; Smith fled with the victim’s wallet and cell phone. A nearby neighbor reported hearing gunshots and an off-duty Prince William County police officer apprehended Smith a short distance away.

Smith was charged with capital murder and robbery. He pleaded guilty to those offenses and in January 2015 received two life terms. The sentence followed a plea agreement; Smith conveyed remorse in a handwritten letter to the Holley family, who accepted the deal.

If anyone knew Gregory Holley or has information about that night, please share what you remember.
