Special thanks to Beyond90Seconds.com reader “Leo” for leaving a comment that the body had been identified as Chad Davis. That prompted a quick Google search which turned up nothing. However, I called the home of George Knight (one of the men who found the body). A person answering the phone at Knight’s home explained that Channel 5 in Winnipeg had reported the identity of the body.
