On a quiet November evening in 2011, a man was walking home from work along a bike path. Just a mile from home, a woman on a bike discovered him lying unconscious. But this wasn’t an accident. He had been brutally attacked with a heavy blade—almost decapitated. No defensive wounds. No motive. And no suspect in sight.

Tips: There is  a $22,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. If you have any information on the murder of David Grubbs, please call or text Crime Stoppers of Southern Oregon at 1–800–850–0580 and refer to case number KTVL 12–25–18. You may remain anonymous.
