The Clayton County Police Department has identified the deceased male in this case as Jon M. Reed from the state of Illinois.  The next-of-kin has been identified in this case. We want to thank every law enforcement agency, our partners, and citizens that assisted us with identifying Mr. Jon M. Reed. This case is still being investigated pending the results of the autopsy.  

First #Update: Need Help Identifying A Deceased Person 

The Clayton County Police Department is still in need of the public’s assistance in identifying the deceased victim that was located in the 600th block of Hunter Ridge Drive, Jonesboro, GA on November 13, 2022, at 10:27 a.m. Because of the condition of the body, we asked for the assistance of Kelly Lawson, the Forensic Artist for the GBI. The best efforts have been put forth by both the Clayton County Police Detectives and the Georgia Bureau of Investigations in trying to identify the victim in this case.  

We have been reviewing all of our Missing Person cases and cases from other agencies in an attempt to identify this victim. At this time, we know that the victim is a white male and was wearing a red jersey. We have attached a sketch of what the male victim could possibly look like.
