Thanks for sharing...I am glad there is closure although I am sad.
Rest in peace, Jake. I am so glad there is closure here now.
It's SO common. Search parties miss bodies, sniffer dogs miss bodies. I've become cynical and rarely believe that an area is ever truly 'cleared' by searchers.I am going to link this thread that was started to document remains found in areas that had been previously searched. It is interesting to follow cases long enough to see this happen.
I need to look back and see just how thoroughly this reserve, Waterfall Glen was searched, but we do know that it was indeed searched.
Remains Found in Area After LE/SAR Searches
ETA- Jake Cefolia disappearance: United Airlines executive missing for one year
Through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, FOX 32 learned in August that investigators have searched Waterfall Glen at least 10 times since Cefolia disappeared.
That puzzled me too. They took the foliage into account for that November search.The leaves were off the trees at this time last year so that shouldn’t have had anything to do with finding him. He was surely there but was not found when they looked in November of 2020.

Search for Missing United Executive Shifts Deeper Into Suburban Chicago Woods
'Now that the leaf foliage is down, it gives us a different perspective. So, we are taking another look,' said DuPage County Forest Preserve Chief DP. 'We’re doing so because there hasn’t been any other lead, or any other information...'"
Well, it does seem pretty evident, but it *could* be hanging post mortem therefore cause of death could be something like blunt force trauma manner of death homicide, BUT, I do not think that is the case but understand with a skeletonized body they clearly have to use other means than a normal coroner to determine that.How could the cause and manner of death remain undetermined if he was found hanging by a belt from a low tree branch?

I bet the final cause of death is "undetermined" and his life insurance pays out too.
Thanks, @Frannie ! I had been wondering if any locals would share details from this episode, but glad it's been made available to those outside of the Chicago area as well.
