Missing No Longer
Madison County (Illinois) coroner Steve Nonn solved a year-old mystery on March 2 when he released the re- sults of an autopsy on Rich- ard Maedge of Troy, Illinois. Maedge’s wife, Jennifer, reported him missing last year after he failed to come home from work, KTVI-TV reported. His car, wallet and keys were at the house, but she couldn’t find him. Police searched the house, which they described as a “hoarder home,” but did not locate him. In fact, they searched twice, as Jennifer was also looking for the source of a “sewerlike” odor in the dwelling.
Finally, on Dec. 11, as Jen- nifer pulled out Christmas decorations from a storage space, she discovered Rich- ard’s mummified body. The coroner ruled that Maedge hanged himself and that there was no foul play in his death.

“Our woodlands, landscape and the biodiversity isn’t set up to deal with the behaviors of the gray,” said the group’s manager, Kerry Hosegood.
“We’re going to introduce them to restaurants in the Ex- moor area because they actual- ly make for good eating,” she added. “This isn’t something that we like to do ... just target grays ... It’s a serious project.”
