On Nov. 10, 2022, authorities received a call about a missing person near Lenoir Avenue. Later that day, the body of a 47-year-old man was found in water in Brantley County, Georgia, JSO said. According to Brantley County Sheriff’s Office, something suspicious was reported on Nov. 9 on a bridge on White Ford Road. Deputies learned that the suspicious item was a body of a man wrapped in plastic. Deputies called the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to assist with the investigation, who also contacted JSO because the body of the man was from Jacksonville.
