The body of a homicide victim found in the Nevada desert more than 40 years ago has been identified as a California man, authorities announced this week. A spokesperson for the Nevada State Police told SFGATE that the investigation division tried to identify the victim through dental records, fingerprints, news releases and evidentiary items from the scene.
