On December 10, 2015, in Bronx, New York, an unidentified male body was discovered, later identified as Paul Kocka. Despite the passage of time, his case remains unresolved, with no known relatives coming forward to claim him or provide information that could aid in closing the case. This has left a lingering mystery around his life and circumstances leading up to his death.
The New York City Office of Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) is handling this case under the agency case number B15-5617. As part of their protocol, OCME continues to seek any information that can help in identifying next of kin or anyone who might have known Paul Kocka. The objective is to provide him with a rightful closure and, ideally, return him to his family.
Members of the public who may have any knowledge regarding Paul Kocka or his past are encouraged to come forward. For further information or to offer any possible leads, individuals can contact the New York City OCME directly at 212-447-2030 or visit their website at [OCME Website](https://www.nyc.gov/site/ocme/index.page). Engaging with the OCME could provide critical assistance in piecing together the puzzle of his life and death, and in giving him the dignity of a known identity and proper remembrance.
