Recently added to the Doe Network (basically just a copy-paste of his NamUs listing) and the info about how somebody knew the body was there for 3 months with no explanation as to why left me stumped. I feel like there's some crucial detail being left out (as is often the case with official sources on UID remains). Any newspapers or other original documentation anybody is able to find (especially the actual location of the building) would be greatly appreciated.

Incomplete Skeletal Remains [CONTRADICTED BY MODERN NAMUS LISTING]
[Frustratingly, this man's entry in the UID listing on the now dead Clark County Coroner website never linked to anything unlike most of the others who had their own individual pages; I was hoping that it might shine some light on the circumstances of recovery and even went through every individual archive of the page from 2004-2013 to try and see if his part of the list was ever updated]
