''In October 2016, the skeletal remains of an unidentified individual were discovered in Nashville, Tennessee. A volunteer crew made the initial discovery while working to clean up debris in a creek at Church Street Park. The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department responded to the scene and located the remains scattered throughout Browns Creek.

It was determined that the remains were that of a white male who was between the ages of 40 and 66 years at the time of his death. No other identifying characteristics could be determined, and despite investigator’s efforts, the case went cold. The man became known as Browns Creek John Doe.''

''A follow-up investigation led investigators to relatives of the unknown man. DNA reference testing was performed, confirming the identity of the man as Kinloch Wilkinson, Jr., born December 13, 1959. Kinloch was very loved and missed by his family, who had not heard from him in over a decade.''
