On the evening of Veterans Day in 2015, Russell’s girlfriend called to report the 30-year-old had been shot. In a story 10 On Your Side has covered numerous times over the years, Russell was last seen in Suffolk. His car was found, but there has been no trace of Russell.
In July 2016, Turner received a mysterious and disturbing phone call.
“They [an unidentified caller] heard that Quantez was shot twice in the head and they [the suspects] bound his feet and his hands with heavy chains and they threw him in the James River,” said Turner in describing the content of that phone call.
Turner says divers searched the river but nothing was found.
In memory of Russell and as a warning to others, on Saturday morning, Turner will host an adopt-a-street cleanup event at 1226 White Marsh Plaza in Suffolk. Turner says that’s where Russell used to hang out.
“I kept passing this same place, where Quantez, when he was a juvenile, he would go over as a teenager and hang out and he would do his bad business in this particular area,” said Turner.
“If he went missing and his name is on that sign, I don’t want you or your child to go missing and have your name on a sign,” Turner said.
This unsolved disappearance intersects the unsolved triple murder that claimed the life of Virginian-Pilot reporter Sierra Jenkins and two men.
