CAMDENTON, Mo. (AP) — A 52-year-old Missouri man has been charged in a nearly decade-old shooting death.
The Camden County Sheriff’s Office says David Smith of Camdenton is charged with first-degree murder in the April 2006 shooting death of 26-year-old Shawn Spencer.
The sheriff’s office says in a release that Smith was arrested Tuesday and is being held without bond. Online court records don’t list a lawyer for Smith.
Deputies responding to a report of a shooting at Smith’s home on April 1, 2006, searched the property, talked to Smith and left after not finding any evidence of a crime. Spencer’s mother reported her son missing a year later. The sheriff’s department says two witnesses have since come forward.
The department says Spencer’s body hasn’t been found, but the investigation continues.
