'In November 2022, the skeletal remains of an unidentified individual were discovered by a tree trimming service in Knoxville, Tennessee. Investigators arrived on the scene and confirmed the remains to be a human skull. A thorough search of the surrounding area was conducted, but limited due to dense brush, fallen leaves, and trees. The remains were sent to the Knox County Regional Forensic Center, where forensic experts determined that the individual was a male between 20 and 35 years old, standing between 5'4" and 6' tall.

In December 2022, details of the case were entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) as UP98486. Despite extensive efforts by law enforcement investigators to identify the man, no matches were found, and the case went cold due to a lack of investigative leads.'

The investigation led to the positive identification of the man, who is now known to be Cody S. Wilhite, born January 8th, 1991. He had been missing since 2020 from the Knoxville area and his missing person record was in NamUs as MP73197.
