FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Authorities are about to release findings from an investigation into the death of a census worker found hanging from a tree with the word "fed" scrawled on his chest.
Kentucky State Police Lt. David Jude says a news conference is set for 2 p.m. EST at the agency's crime lab in Frankfort.
Federal and state investigators who have been working the case since September haven't yet announced whether Bill Sparkman's death was a homicide, suicide or accident.
Sparkman's naked body was found Sept. 12 near a cemetery in a heavily wooded area of southeastern Kentucky. One of the witnesses who found the body said the 51-year-old was bound with duct tape, gagged and had an identification badge taped to his neck.
