SOUTH FULTON COUNTY — A mother is pleading for her only son's killer to come forward.
James Marchman came to Atlanta to visit friends in March. He never made it back home alive.
"They found him dead in a hole," his mother, Arlene Marchman, told Channel 2's Lauren Pozen.
Police said James Marchman's body was found dead from gunshot wounds in the 7100 block of Butner Road, an area where new homes are being built.
A month after his murder, no arrests have been made.
“I can’t sleep, I can’t eat so thinking about him coming here for a visit and somebody just wanting to hurt him,” Arlene Marchman said.
Arlene Marchman said the family, which includes his children, have a huge void without him.
James Marchman used to live in Atlanta, but moved away. His mother said he came back to meet up with friends.
On March 8, she got a knock at her door at her home at 4 a.m. from the police telling her he had been shot and killed.
His family is begging anyone who knows anything to come forward, and whoever the killer is, the Marchmans want them to know this:
"You all took everything from us the only male figure that we had left in our immediate family. That was our everything," Arlene Marchman said.
If you have any information, you are asked to call Atlanta police.
