'On April 29, 1995, deputies with HCSO responded to the northwest corner of Bearss Avenue and I-275, where a deceased male was located inside a tent with advanced stages of decomposition. The investigation revealed the male had died of natural causes.
Up until May 2023, there had not been any substantial leads in this case. That's when detectives with HCSO's Cold Case Unit began to review this case with assistance from Ohtram Labs. Othram Labs conducted forensic genealogy testing to identify the remains.'
''On August 23, 2024, the Cold Case Unit positively identified the previously unknown human remains as belonging to Christopher "Charlie" Mammana.''
