Case History
fisherman cutting through a filed found the skeletal remains of this victim in the 1200 block of Oakland Boulevard, just north of Interstate 30, under a tree in a brushy ravine, on February 2, 1997. A barrel was found nearby, and a clothesline-like cord dangled from a tree, leading investigators to believe that the young man hanged himself.
The acre of field is not entirely secluded but surrounded by a neighborhood, it's just vacant enough to be off the beaten path.
A review of all Fort Worth missing persons cases at the time yielded no clues to the man's identity, nor did a check with the Missing Persons Clearing House
