I'm looking to see if anybody could help me find more details about this individual, specifically;
  • Where in the county was he located?
  • How much of his body was recovered (NamUs says cranium in the description but he has a height estimate so I'm thinking some other bones might have been discovered as well)?
  • Possible pictures of the skull that were published in newspapers?
Anything found is greatly appreciated.
