Family says police didn’t listen to witness account of prelude to Buckland man’s death
Dozens of people marched from the Delaney Park Strip to the Anchorage Police Department headquarters on Fourth Avenue on Friday calling for police to reopen the case on Fred Lee's death.
But family members say police botched the investigation and there are still plenty of unanswered questions about the circumstances Lee died in — made more urgent by a witness, an Anchorage man named Stephen Fisher who says he heard a loud conversation or scuffle in the woods just minutes before Lee’s body was found on the beach below.“It bothers me that they weren’t curious enough,” Fisher said.
Lee’s daughter, Shaylin Thomas, still has questions about what that cause of death means, and how Lee got to the beach naked and with injuries that included scratches all over his back and a broken nose. “The voice sounded angry at times, agitated and aggressive,” he said. “I thought there were maybe two voices.”
The man was naked and face down in the sand. He touched his arm to see if he should try CPR and found it warm, but rigid. To Fisher, it seemed clear that the man was dead and rigor mortis had already set in.
