Found Deceased KY - William 'Scottie' Fannin, 37, Martin County, 10 Dec 2015

William Scott Fannin was last seen in the Milo community wearing jeans and a blue long sleeve shirt under a green t-shirt. Fannin has brown hair and a beard, but family members say he's usually wearing a hat - probably the one pictured.

He stands at 6 feet, weighing about 160 pounds.

The Martin County Sheriff says this is very out of character for Fannin and that fowl play has not been ruled out.

If anyone has information on Fannin's whereabouts, they are encouraged to call the Martin County Sheriff's Department at 606-298-3211.

(Martin County Sheriff) Kirk explained that although the cadaver dogs indicated that a body was in the lake, it is likely that it isn’t Fannin. “We don’t believe the body is in the lake,” Kirk said. “The dogs indicated a body in the lake but it could have been from years ago,” Kirk continued.

The search for Fannin will not end until he is located. Kirk explained, “The search is never ending. We were out until 2 a.m. this morning searching.”

He was found less then a mile from home after there was seven search parties. Consider that rumor for now.But it came from family.

There are so many searches where somebody is later found, basically just right there. I can't understand that, but I've never been out on such a search. Hopefully, they'll have the autopsy or whatever done soon so that they'll know what happened to him.

Another thing I found curious was that they found seven cars in that lake. That itty-bitty lake that's out in the sticks. I don't know when the lake was dammed/built, but it was sometime b/w the 1960's and 1980's.
I wonder if any of them were from actual car accidents or whether they were put there by someone. Either the "cover up some kind of crime" kind put them there, or just someone wanting to get rid of an old car.
 
Knoxville investigators unable to determine Scottie Fannin's cause of death.

MARTIN COUNTY, Ky. (WYMT)- Not a day goes by that Carole Fannin doesn't think about her stepson.


"You know you wonder every day cause it's on your mind every day," said Carole Fannin.

She said Scottie Fannin had a wonderful sense of humor.

"He was good hearted, he would do anything for you," said Fannin.

A good hearted man is how family said they will remember Scottie Fannin.
