Rockingham County sheriff's investigators have identified human remains recovered at a rock quarry in Ruffin as those of Ronald Deon Washington, a Reidsville man who was reported missing in January 2020. The remains were found in two separate searches, one on April 8 and another on June 1 of this year.

The case has been reclassified as a homicide. Chief Ray Gibson said the identification followed a lengthy forensic process and that investigators are now treating the death as a criminal matter. The Rockingham County Sheriff's Office and the State Bureau of Investigation are working the case jointly, and deputies have returned to the quarry property repeatedly since the first recovery.

No charges have been announced and no suspect has been named. Anyone with information about Washington's disappearance, or about activity around the quarry on Ruffin Road in early 2020, is asked to contact the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office or Rockingham County Crime Stoppers. Tips can be made anonymously.
