MARINE CARSON
Richard Keith
Est. body dumped (3 h, jun 19, 1978 y – 5 h, jun 19, 1978 y)
Description:
"Discovered lying on the shoulder of Moulton Parkway north of La Paz Road at approximately 5:_0 a.m. today [6/19/78] by a passing motorist. [...] The cause and time of death were not immediately known, although a spokesman said the body appeared to have been dumped on the paved shoulder sometime between 3 and 5:__ a.m." (OCR 6/19/78).
Note: this clipping is incredibly blurry and difficult to read. The underscores represent pieces of text that I was unable to make out. I am unsure whether the first time listed here is supposed to be7:_0 am or 5:_0 am; it most resembles a 7 to me, but given the context I think it is more likely to be a 5.
