If that is the correct Gordon R. Johns (in North Fort Worth), he purchased the house in 2007 and a couple bought the house in May of 2022. The grantor in the May 2022 transaction is a corporation (*not* Mr. Johns). I am wondering if either there was a search of the house because taxes or mortgage had not been paid? Or a general welfare check? And the property then passed to the county in lieu of heirs. If there were no heirs, that would explain the failure to do a DNA test to verify his identity. Dang. This is really sad.
I am from Fort Worth. I will do some research and post my findings.
unfortunately, my mind went to suicide immediately. if he was in a lot of debt, single, and it's hard to find any relatives easily I could see that being the scenario. MOO.Unless the closet is a walk-in, it’s either murder or suicide. Nobody just climbs into a bedroom closet to die accidentally.
I can't see why not? You've done a great job researching this. Sad story, and I'd guess it was a suicide.unfortunately, my mind went to suicide immediately. if he was in a lot of debt, single, and it's hard to find any relatives easily I could see that being the scenario. MOO.
My only doubt is that he's on the unidentified instead of unclaimed. You would think with all the evidence that something happened in January 2021 they would be able to link it and make an ID. That alone makes me wonder if something nefarious was going on.
What do y'all think about me submitting a tip to our local newspaper? This happened last year but NamUs just posted on July 5th. I can't find any news articles regarding a body found in a house. I can't help but wonder if a news article could boost the story and help them find his family and identity.
