Case History
On January 2nd, 2006, deputies from the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office located the remains of a man off of Highway 674, approximately
½ mile west of Interstate 75 in Ruskin, Florida. Additional evidence was found on a wooded lot in an orange camping tent with black trim on
November 19th, 2008. The identity of the man remains unknown.
In January a woman discovered a human bone while cleaning her yard and believed that her dog must have retrieved
the bone from someplace on the land surrounding her property. The woman told law enforcement officers that she had recently found other bones
in her yard but believed they were animal. More than two years later, her husband was walking through the nearby woods when he located a tent
between some bushes. As he walked closer to the tent, he found additional remains, believing that this was linked to those found earlier.
