"In 2023, the remains of an unidentified individual were transferred to the Mississippi State Medical Examiner’s Office so that an anthropological analysis could be developed in hopes that the individual could be identified. It was determined that the remains were that of an unknown adult male who was likely at least 55 years old at the time of his death. The anthropological assessment revealed that the individual suffered a traumatic injury at or around the time of death.''

''These new leads were provided to investigators, and a follow-up investigation was conducted. With the provided information, investigators were able to identify a potential relative of the man. The DNA profile of the potential relative was compared to the unknown man's DNA profile using KinSNP® Rapid Relationship Testing. This investigation led to the identification of the man as William Meredith Seitz, Sr. William, a victim of homicide, was killed in 1985 in Choctaw, Mississippi. The circumstances around the discovery and subsequent transfer of his remains are under investigation.''

Huh, it seems like they found his remains at the time of his murder. I wonder how he ended up at the ME Office.
