Olmeda’s family said his remains have positively been identified and they are laying him to rest in a service Tuesday in Illinois.

Then, two weeks later (after his disappearance), police told 10 On Your Side that Olmeda’s remains had been found in a five-gallon bucket filled with concrete. The bucket was inside a closet at the Wilcox Avenue house. Police also found blood splatter on the walls, along with garden tools.

10 On Your Side has reached out to NCIS, but has not heard back. In Olmeda’s obituary, the family said that, in lieu of flowers, people can make a donation to his 10-year-old daughter’s college fund.
