Human remains identified

The human remains found in Pablo on Saturday, Nov. 3 have been identified as 48 year old William Harvey Flesch of Pablo. William Flesch had been missing since July 2012 and was suspected to have possibly left the area at the time. Cause and manner of death have yet to be determined, however, the Sheriff’s Office has no reason at this time to suspect foul play was involved. William Flesch’s remains were found in an undeveloped wooded area a short distance from his Pablo residence by two juveniles walking through the area.
