His family reported him as missing in September 2022. Although the Nye County Sheriff’s Office undertook an extensive investigation, leads regarding Core’s location dissipated.

In June 2023, skeletal remains were discovered in the desert outside Pahrump.

After the Clark County coroner and medical examiner’s office were unable to identify the remains, detectives sought assistance from Othram. This Texas laboratory employs Forensic-Grade Genome Sequencing to develop genealogical profiles, which can aid in discovering new leads.
With data from Othram, detectives confirmed the remains were those of Core.

The Nye County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate Core’s disappearance and death as a potential homicide.

Anyone with information is encouraged to reach out to the sheriff’s office at (775) 751-7000. To remain anonymous, you can contact Crime Stoppers at (702) 385-5555 or visit crimestoppersofnv.com.
