Skeletal remains found on a secluded hillside residence while property was being surveyed for new owner. Scene appeared to be at least 10 to 15 years old. Skeletal remains spread out over 100 feet on hillside down a deertrail. Evidence of animal bites to skull. Ruger Bearcat .22 caliber revolver discovered under body. Gun traced to burglary in Arizona. Smirnoff Vodka bottle and Budweiser Beer cans also on scene. Dates on bottle and cans were lotted to 1981. 22 caliber ammo found in a handmade leather backpack. Single gunshot wound found on the right side of head. Lower jaw missing. Numerous bones found but not a complete skeleton. Totality of circumstances during investigation led investigators to believe that this was a suicide by handgun.
