The family of Hubert Bailey Sr. is offering a $3,000 reward for information on who killed him in 2018.
Bailey, 77, was found following a fire at his house on Ellis Street in Augusta in December 2018. The coroner said he died from blunt force trauma to the head.
The victim’s nephew, Ron Barnes, said the family has been seeking justice in the case and decided to offer the money for anyone with information that would lead to a conviction.
Anyone with credible information is asked to call RCSO Sgt. Randall Amos at 706-821-1093.
According to his obituary, the victim was a retired mechanic, but he had many hobbies he enjoyed.
“He never met a stranger and loved to talk to anyone and everyone he came across. There wasn’t much that he couldn’t fix or do and he also enjoyed coming up with new inventions,” the obituary said.
