"In June 1997, the skeletal remains of an unidentified individual were discovered in a grassy area in the unincorporated community of Holopaw, which is located in St. Cloud, Florida. St. Cloud is a city in Osceola County that is situated on East Lake Tohopekaliga, south of Orlando. The remains were dicovered by travelers who had stopped on the side of highway 192. The Osceola County Sheriff's Office responded to the scene. The remains were transported to the University of Florida where it was determined that they were that of a male, who stood between 5’ 9” and 6’ 1” and weighed between 200 and 225 pounds. The man was between the ages of 50 and 70 years old at the time of his death.''

''Stabler was featured on the TV show “America’s Most Wanted” which garnered tips about his whereabouts, including information about him being in New York in 1991 or 1992, where he was seen shopping at a Banana Republic store with his Doberman Pinscher named Daisy. It was reported that he was working as a video game repairman. The last known photo of Stabler dates back to 1988, when he was arrested in Los Angeles under the alias "William Hudson." There have been no solid leads on Stabler for more than two decades.''
