BAILEY, Colorado — The Colorado Bureau of Investigation is looking for the public’s help in identifying a man whose remains were found last year. The remains of the person, referred to as “John Doe”, were found on May 28, 2024, in a remote camping area outside of Bailey on United States Forest Service land. Forensic experts say he may have been there since 2022 or 2023. A forensic facial reconstruction expert created a sculpture of the man.

They are also reaching out to similar communities in Pueblo, CO and Omaha, NE…
