Fun fair
Steven glanced at his notes. "Not much, yet. He was in the system— his wife had filed a domestic violence case before their divorce. There were also some reports of a drunken brawl. He was in his late 40s when he disappeared. Worked odd jobs, mostly under the table. According to the missing person report, he was a bit of a drifter, no steady employment or fixed address."
Fred frowned, his detective instincts kicking into high gear. A drifter, missing for five years, now turning up as a body in the marsh.
"Any known connections? Friends, associates, places he frequented?" Fred asked, his mind already racing with possibilities.
"Not much to go on," Steven admitted. "But I'm working on it. I'll dig into his background and see if there's anything that might give us a lead. I'll also look into his sister's current whereabouts, see if she's still in the area, and what she knows. If there are any other family contacts, I'll track them down too."
