He had just moved into a new house with his girlfriend and was planning to build his own house with his father. He seemed to have everything going for him, until he vanished without a trace on January 5, 2015.

The Last Time He Was Seen
According to NBC News, Kelly Nash was last seen by his girlfriend, Jessica, around 3:30 am on the morning of his disappearance. He was playing on his Xbox on the couch, as he was feeling sick and did not want to disturb her sleep. She went back to bed and when she woke up at 7:30 am, he was gone. His truck, wallet, phone, and coat were all left behind. The only thing missing was him.
Jessica called Kelly’s parents, who immediately sensed something was wrong. They contacted the police and started searching for him. They checked his phone records, bank accounts, social media accounts, and any other possible clues, but found nothing. They also reviewed the surveillance footage from a gas station near their house, where Kelly had bought some cold medicine the night before. He seemed normal and calm in the video, talking to Jessica on the phone.
The only possible lead they had was a 28-second voicemail that Kelly’s phone had left on Jessica’s phone around 3:30 am. It sounded like an accidental call, with some muffled words and noises in the background. The police tried to enhance the audio, but could not make out anything significant.
The Discovery of His Body
For five weeks, Kelly’s family and friends searched for him tirelessly. They distributed flyers, organized vigils, offered rewards, and appealed to the public for any information. They hoped that Kelly was still alive somewhere, maybe suffering from amnesia or hiding from some trouble.
Their hopes were shattered on February 8, 2015, when a fisherman found Kelly’s body in Lake Lanier, a large reservoir about 2.5 miles from his house. It was in the cove behind his father’s house, where Kelly used to fish and swim as a child. The police confirmed that it was him through dental records and tattoos.
The cause of death was even more shocking. According to Patch.com, Kelly had suffered a gunshot wound to the head and drowned in the lake. The police did not find any signs of foul play or struggle at the scene or on his body. They also did not recover any bullet or gun from the water.
The Unanswered Questions
Kelly’s death raised more questions than answers. How did he end up in the lake with a bullet in his head? Did he shoot himself or was he shot by someone else? If it was suicide, why did he leave his house without taking anything with him? If it was homicide, who killed him and why? Was his disappearance related to any other missing persons cases or criminal activities in the area?
The police have not released the autopsy report or any other details about their investigation. They have only stated that they do not suspect foul play, leaving only suicide or accident as possible scenarios. However, neither of these explanations seem to fit with Kelly’s personality or circumstances.
According to Reddit.com, Kelly’s parents described him as a non-aggressive and pleasing person who wanted to do things right. He had no history of mental illness or substance abuse. He had no enemies or conflicts that they knew of. He had strong relationships with his girlfriend, family, and friends. He had goals and dreams that he was working towards.
Kelly’s family and friends do not believe that he killed himself or that he died accidentally. They think that there is more to his story than what the police have revealed. They suspect that he may have been lured outside by someone he knew or trusted, or that he may have witnessed something that put him in danger.
They also wonder if his case is connected to another missing person case in the same area. Samuel Waters, a 21-year-old man who lived about 10 miles from Kelly’s house, disappeared on December 26th 2014 – just 10 days before Kelly did. He also left behind his car, wallet, phone and clothes at his home. His body has not been found yet.
The Search for Justice
Kelly’s family and friends are still seeking justice for him. They want to know what happened to him and why. They want to find out who is responsible for his death and hold them accountable. They want to honor his memory and keep his spirit alive.
They have created a Facebook page called “Kelly Nash Missing” where they share updates on his case and memories of him. They have also set up a website called “Justice for Kelly” where they post information and evidence that they have gathered. They hope that by spreading awareness and keeping pressure on the authorities, they will eventually get the answers they deserve.
Kelly Nash was a young man who had a lot to live for. He was loved by many and missed by all. His cause of death remains a mystery that haunts his family and friends. His case is one of the many unresolved mysteries that challenge our understanding of human nature and fate.
