The remains have been sent to the state Crime Lab at the Georgia Bureau of Investigation for identification and cause of death.

Gwinnett police said in a news release dental records indicated, however, that the remains are not of Justin Gaines, who disappeared November 2007.

According to http://s10.invisionfree.com/usedtobedoe/index.php?showtopic=46434 and another forum I can't link to, this decedent was identified.

He was Scott Spalding, 38, missing since 2000, whose death was ruled a suicide.
