Sangamon County Sheriff Neil Williamson calls it one of the more brutal crimes that he’s seen.
But he won’t say much more about what happened to the unidentified black male who was found dead along a rural Mechanicsburg road Monday night.
An autopsy is being performed today in Bloomington that may reveal more about the cause and manner of death or the identity of the victim.
A neighbor found the victim along Griffiths Creek Road Monday night, but Williamson says it appears the victim was killed someplace else and the body was dumped there.
