Accident – Death – Obituary News :
The Vermont State Police announced on Tuesday that a human skull discovered in Cavendish four years ago has been confirmed to belong to Bryan Gomez, who was reported missing in 2010. Despite this identification, investigators have yet to determine the cause or manner of the 48-year-old man’s death.
The skull was found by a hunter in the woods of Cavendish in November 2020. DNA extracted from the skull was compared to the genetic profiles of Gomez’s siblings, and there was strong evidence supporting their relatedness, according to a press release by the state police.
Bryan Gomez, a resident of Cavendish, was reported missing on July 6, 2010, after his neighbour raised concerns about not seeing him for several weeks. Following the initial report, Gomez’s case worker requested a welfare check as they had not been in contact with him for approximately a month.
According to state police, Gomez had “some mental health limitations” and was known to hitchhike as he did not own a car. This information sheds light on Gomez’s circumstances and possible reasons for his disappearance.
Recent Developments in Cold Cases
This recent identification of Gomez’s skull marks the second advancement in cold cases by the Vermont State Police. Earlier this month, the agency successfully closed a 1982 case involving the discovery of a deceased infant in Northfield.
The closure of these cases highlights the dedication of law enforcement in pursuing justice and solving long-standing mysteries. However, there are still over 80 unsolved homicides and missing persons cases in the state of Vermont, underscoring the ongoing challenges faced by investigators.
