No update on this one that I can find. I wonder what let to the ‘possible name’ identification of Dearth pretty much as soon as the remains were found in a drum, presumably in a decently advanced state of decomposition. I also assume that indicates foul play…

Hopefully we do get an update eventually, or at the very least the family of whomever those remains belonged to (Dearth or otherwise) has been able to find some peace.
