SD Authorities Revisiting Cold Case Deemed Homicide In 2000

PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — South Dakota authorities are revisiting a cold case that was determined to be a homicide in 2000 thanks to new 3-D technology.

Attorney General Marty Jackley says the FBI’s 3-D technology is allowing authorities in the state to release updated photographs of the homicide victim.

In February 2000, skeletal remains of an unidentified man were discovered near St. Onge, a community 14 miles north of Deadwood. Authorities at the time determined the man died from multiple gunshot wounds.

Jackley says the new technology was used to develop a three-dimensional head shot of the victim that can give investigators and the public a better idea of how the man looked before his death.

Jackley and authorities in Lawrence County will publicly share the photographs Tuesday in Deadwood.
