On April 15, 1997 a teenager discovered a decomposing body in a wooded area near the town of Union Grove, Alabama.

According to the county's Chief Investigator, Keith Wilson, the head and hands were cut off with “some type of saw,” while the feet were gnawed off by animals. The heart and spleen had been removed with surgical-type skill, leading investigators to believe they may have held evidence and/or delay identification of the body. Additionally, a handful of air fresheners were found nearby.

“Someone went to great lengths to hide the identity of our victim and the cause of his death,” said Wilson, "the victim’s feet were bound by rope and then around the scene, they found other pieces of rope."

Investigators were unable to identify the "moderately decomposed" body and believed he may have been stabbed or shot in a separate location before being dumped in that area.

“The body was identified as a white male, however, due to the removal of the head, hands and feet, it was impossible to give an accurate age or description,” the Sheriff’s Office wrote in a statement.

Thankfully the family has some answers, as heartbreaking as it must be.
I wonder if he was reported missing. I can't find any "missing person" info on him.

I don't think anyone reported him missing.

Whoever killed him wanted to make absolutely sure he could not be I'Ded.

He was so young - less than 2 years out of high school if the dates on the final yearbook photo is correct.

Supposedly his parents are very religious and didn't approve of his alternative lifestyle.
