Camden, NJ – Detectives are seeking the public’s assistance in finding the body of a man who was murdered in Camden in June and has yet to be located, announced Camden County Prosecutor Grace C. MacAulay and Camden County Police Chief Gabriel Rodriguez.
Harold “Hal” Miller Jr., 48, of Deptford was last observed on surveillance video entering a residence on the 2600 block of Baird Boulevard in Camden on the morning of June 12, 2025. Last month, detectives charged 41-year-old Everton Thomas of Camden with Miller’s murder. Additionally, the defendant’s wife, Sherrie Parker, 41, and his son, Deshawn Thomas, 23, were charged for their roles in helping to dispose of the victim’s body.
During the investigation, detectives learned that Sherrie Parker and Deshawn Thomas purchased a chainsaw, containers, trash bags, and other cleaning supplies after Miller was observing entering the residence, but never exiting it. Additionally, surveillance video showed Everton Thomas and Deshawn Thomas making several trips to the Tamarack Apartments dumpsters and loading containers and trash bags into a vehicle before leaving the city.
Everton Thomas is charged with first-degree Murder, second-degree Desecration of Human Remains, and fourth-degree Tampering with Physical Evidence. Sherrie Parker and Deshawn Thomas are both charged with second-degree Desecration of Human Remains and fourth-degree Tampering with Physical Evidence. All three defendants are being held at the Camden County Correctional Facility following detention hearings in Superior Court.
“We’re asking for the public’s help in locating the body of Mr. Miller so we can bring answers to his grieving family,” said Prosecutor MacAulay. “Any information, no matter how small, could be the key to bringing them peace and helping us deliver justice. The family has suffered enough — it’s time to help bring their loved one home.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Jake Siegfried of the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office Homicide Unit at (856) 225-5086 and Detective Andrew Mogck of the Camden County Police Department at (609) 519-8588 Tips can also be sent to CAMDEN.TIPS.
