Missing person case turns into a homicide investigation after decomposed body found with multiple stab wounds

According to a press release, on Sunday, February 25 at approximately 5:11 p.m. PST, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department “was notified by the Nevada Department of Forestry of a deceased male found in the area of [State Route 157 at mile marker 10.]”

“We sent our homicide detectives out there and discovered the victim had been stabbed,” Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Public Information Officer Larry Hadfield told Dateline Wednesday. “The homicide detective believed, due to the evidence and circumstances there, that the crime had happened at that scene.”

On Tuesday, two days after the body was found, the Clark County Coroner’s Office formally identified the body as Izaak. Isaak’s family was notified before his name was publicly released.
A family member had reached out to Dateline on Sunday night about featuring Isaak’s story in the online series ‘Missing in America.’ In an eerie coincidence, the request came within hours of Isaak’s unidentified body being found.
As Dateline reported on Monday, Izaak was last seen on February 9, 2018. He had been hanging out at his friend Michael VanCleef’s house.
“We parted ways around nine o’clock,” Michael told Dateline on Monday. “The neighborhood was buzzing. There are always people out in my neighborhood.”
Izaak lived with his mother, Angelina Birong, in a home that’s just a 10-minute walk from Michael’s. But he never made it home that night.
“It’s not uncommon for him to be away for a night — or even two. But there is always some form of contact — a text, a funny picture or something,” Angelina told Dateline on Monday. “After two days of no contact, I knew something was wrong.”

Officer Hadfield told Dateline Izaak’s case is now being treated as a murder investigation.
“We’re going through the investigative process right now,” he said. “We don’t have a lot of information on this. We will go through the person’s background, interview family, etcetera.”
According to Officer Hadfield, authorities have not identified any suspects or motives at this time.

RIP Izaak :rose:

I'm trying to be steely but Isaak's picture reminds me so much of a guy I work with who is so chill and funny. And I can't help but put him in that same category and be really upset that someone took him away. Hope we see justice served for whoever hurt Isaak.

 

[Blondie in Spokane]

How terribly sad. I wonder how far his body was found from his friend’s house. I’m assuming he caught a ride with someone, the wrong person.

RIP Izaak.

Is it normal for them to refer to a body as 'decomposed' after not even three weeks? Especially in the winter, although I know it doesn't get that cold in Vegas.

Sorry, I am behind in reading. Was that msm or LE. MSM is unreliable in my opinion but one of 2 sources we are allowed to post.
I hope we get more info. So very sad. Just doing what is the norm except this time he didn't return home.

Police arrest five MS-13 gang members in connection to murder of Izaak Towery, nine others in Las Vegas
https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/mis...-gang-members-connection-murder-izaak-n860591
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department has arrested five members of the MS-13 gang members in connection with 10 murders over the past year in the Las Vegas Valley, including the murder in February of Izaak Towery.

In a March 26, 2018 press release, the LVMPD said detectives “were able to link several murders through forensic evidence, proximity and similarities of the crimes,” adding that the five suspects, ranging in age from 19-24, have been taken into custody. They are being held on federal immigration charges and face potential charges of kidnapping, assault with intent to commit murder, first degree murder, and the use of a firearm resulting in death.

MS-13: Targeting Las Vegas?
[...]

The gang is La Mara Salvatrucha, better known as MS-13.

[...]

Early this year, LVMPD announced the arrest of five MS-13 members. Police said the gangsters had been responsible for ten murders in Clark County over a 12 month period.

[...]

Fearing retribution, the mother of 23-year-old Izaak Towery did not want to show her face.

She says she once lived here with her son "Izaak."

It was back in February when "Izaak" disappeared. Weeks later his body was found along State Route 157. Izaak's mother says her son was playing video games with a friend the night he went missing, and she says he was a good kid and not a troublemaker.

[...]

Police confirm MS-13 abducted Izaak and was behind his murder.

Vaughn says MS- 13 will target random people.

"Especially the newer members of the gang who are trying to achieve a more senior status in the gang will kill people for the sake of showing they can kill people."

[...]

Towery’s mother said, "You don't think it's going to happen to you but it can happen apparently to anybody."

 

[evilwise]

Could have been anyone or anyone's son. Unacceptable for this to happen in the US. El Paso Walmart spree killing is world news with tremendous expectations of guilt thrust onto one ethnic community while brutal random MS-13 murders don't even make a ripple in the mainstream media.

 

[rodneymullenmg]

Wonder if he was selling drugs with them. It’s Very rare to be targeted for no reason at all

Izaak was NOT gang related to any capacity and MS13 is actually very well known for killing people just for the sake of killing them.
