Note: this article gives his name as Arthur Leonard Murray

Over the years, the Washington County Sheriff’s Office has reinterviewed Murray’s family and acquaintances, conducted polygraph tests, submitted his information when unidentified remains have been found across the country and assigned new investigators to take fresh looks at the files.

“There’s no doubt there is foul play involved,” said Lt. Mark M. Knight of the sheriff’s office’s criminal investigation unit.
A neighbor who saw Murray on April 2, 1985, on his Kemps Mill Road property said the man told him he was upset over domestic problems.
In June 1986, West Virginia State Police in Charles Town, W.Va., found skeletal remains they thought could be Murray’s. However, those remains included teeth, and Murray reportedly had no teeth.
