I bet you're right, marble. They have announced today that the body was a white male in his 30's and identified pending forensic tests. (Name still withheld)

The wlfi article has a little more info: http://www.wlfi.com/story/36088602/coroner-positively-identifies-32-year-old-found-dead-in-ditch

He died between July 24 and 26, no cause of death as of now, but no foul play suspected.


Really sad... I don't think there was any missing person reported. His obituary shows his parents deceased and and he had no siblings. I found that his parents died in a housefire when he was a toddler. Looks like he had a little trouble with the law on and off. Hopefully he is at peace now.
