On February 23, 1982, at approximately 10:00 a.m., the partially decomposed body of a human male was located by state highway workers in a wooded area along I-95 near exit 98 in Hanover County Virginia. Due to the high degree of decomposition, facial identification could not be made. No wallet or other items were located on or near the body that provided clues as to his identity. The body was clothed in a blue/green T-shirt, white sweater, underwear, brown socks and brown cowboy boots. The victim was also wearing a gold chain with a gold crucifix, a 'Seiko' wristwatch and an 18K gold wedding band. The wedding band was engraved with, 'LUCY 4-14-75' and what is described as a jeweler's mark, 'TJI'. An autopsy was performed and it was apparent that the victim had died from multiple gunshot wounds to the head and chest. The victim was estimated to be between 25 and 45 years of age. Approximately 145 to 190lbs. The estimated time of death is believed to around November 1981. ViCAP # 2013VSP00042 NAMUS # UP6245
