"Since that death was first reported to gpd upon the discovery of the body we have not been able to have any substantial leads in who this person may be and that’s why we decided to release the tattoo because that’s the only identifying body marking that we can use to push out to the public to help us identify this person. We looked at all of any past missing persons, any other cases that may be related but we haven’t established any direct connection between any missing persons or other cases that may help us identify this homicide victim," he stated.

"It appears that the body was burned.
