In a case that has intrigued many since it first emerged, the unidentified body of a black male was discovered in a state of decomposition in an abandoned house in Atlanta, Georgia, on January 17, 2019. Initially registered under Namus ID: UCP56461, the man was later identified through fingerprint analysis as Lawrence Mitchell.
