On June 18, 2014, a male body was discovered in Boise, Idaho, leading authorities to investigate an unclaimed person case identified as Earl-Lee Beall Jr. The deceased was found at his residence following reports from neighbors who noted his unusual absence over a few mornings. Concerned about his wellbeing, a neighbor checked on him and subsequently made the discovery that prompted further inquiry.
Throughout the investigation, contact was made with Earl-Lee Beall Jr.’s brother, Fred Beall, who resides in Massachusetts. Despite attempts to coordinate with the family, Fred Beall communicated his decision to not be involved in any arrangements for his brother.

Ultimately, Earl-Lee Beall Jr. was laid to rest at the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery on August 26, 2014. This decision ensured that he received a dignified burial, honoring the service he may have rendered to his country, as is customary for veterans. The case, overseen by the Ada County Coroner's Office, is marked under Agency Case Number 140621-8 with additional details documented under Namus ID: UCP3373.
