The decedent was found in a brush area to the rear of a residence at the 200 block of West 78th Street in Los Angeles on 1/21/2024. The decedent is completely skeletonized but is believed to be a black male, age 30-50, who is between 5'6" and 6'2" tall. They have been deceased approximately 3 to 6 months. The decedent was wearing a plaid shirt, t-shirt (size L), gray sweatpants, and brown Timberland hiking boots (size 10). They have recent healed fractures to their nose and face.
 
And this might be the entrance to this alley. Seems like only certain people could access it.
