WESTERN KY (12/6/11)— The Kentucky State Police (KSP) investigate criminal activity across the entire Commonwealth of Kentucky, and, in many instances, the information provided by individual citizens allows law enforcement officials to make important breakthroughs in difficult cases.
With this in mind, members of the KSP Post 16 in Henderson, KY are requesting help from the public in resolving the murder investigation of an unknown white male.
As members of the KSP Post 16 report, the unidentified male in question was located approximately 2.5 miles Northwest of Philpot, KY (Daviess County) on January 7th, 1990.
The victim stood approximately 5’ 6”-5’ 7” in height and weighed 125-140 pounds. It is believed that the victim’s eyes were blue; his hair was brown.
Due the graphic nature of the evidence found at the scene, which is attached below, some readers may want to use discretion.
When located, KSP investigators found that the victim was nude, had been shot a total of six times, and that both his hands and feet were severed from his body. Further evidence revealed that the victim had been severely beaten and that several of his teeth were knocked out. The victim’s hands and feet remain missing and the subject has never been identified.
