The Hamilton County Coroner’s Office is looking for help identifying two men whose bodies were found recently.
A man’s body was discovered on Tuesday, March 4, near the Sacred Heart Recreational Area soccer fields near Mt. Storm Park in Clifton, according to WCPO.
The coroner says they don’t suspect foul play in the man’s death, but his fingerprints aren’t in any system and facial recognition software hasn’t identified him, according to WCPO.
According to WCPO, the man was white, approximately six feet tall, and weighed around 230 pounds. He had brown hair, brown eyes, a full beard, and longer hair, according to WCPO.
According to the WCPO, the man was found with black-framed glasses, black pants, a black jacket, and a black backpack. He had no identifying tattoos or scars.
“This person had not been dead for a long time; he was discovered relatively quickly after his death,” said County Coroner Lakshmi Sammarco. “It’s just there’s nothing in the system.”
A second man’s body was discovered on March 1 near the Delhi Township and Cincinnati line in the 6800 block of Hillside Ave in a heavily wooded area, according to the WCPO.
According to the WCPO, the man’s remains were skeletal when discovered.
According to WCPO, Sammarco does not believe there was any foul play in this death.
“Judging by the area where he was found and the steepness of the hillside and the likelihood of his size, we don’t think he was put there,” according to Sammarco. “We don’t believe he was placed there; instead, we believe he took his own life there. So we don’t suspect foul play.”
According to WCPO, the remains belonged to a middle-aged black man who stood around six feet tall. They also claim he was wearing XL shirts, a Port Authority-style fleece jacket, Levi jeans, and size 13 Airwalk shoes.
According to WCPO, Sammarco believes the man died last fall.
