On December 27, 2017, the body of an unclaimed individual was discovered in San Bernardino, California. The deceased was identified as John Howard Standfield. His body was found at the Waterman Convalescent Hospital, a facility located within the city. Despite efforts to contact possible family members or associates, no one came forward to claim his remains, leaving his case open and unresolved.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department - Coroner Division took charge of the investigation. Located at 175 South Lena Road, San Bernardino, California, the agency has set up procedures to handle such cases of unclaimed persons, but in Standfield's situation, they have yet to establish a connection to relatives or further leads. With a dedicated team available for inquiries, they encourage contact at their service number, 909-387-2978, for any potential information that could assist in connecting John Standfield to his family or next of kin.
The case is logged under the agency case number 701803061 and holds the NamUs ID UCP91928. The coroner's division continues to seek any public help in identifying someone who might have known Standfield or could provide information about his background. Their website, accessible at http://wp.sbcounty.gov/sheriff/divisions/coroner/, offers additional information and resources related to other unclaimed persons, reflecting the department's ongoing commitment to resolving such cases.
