In October 1983 a couple foraging near an abandoned farmhouse in Lake Village, Indiana, uncovered partially buried human remains. The body was of a young Black male, and investigators later learned he was one of four victims recovered from that site linked to serial killer Larry Eyler. For decades the youth remained unidentified and was cataloged as Adam Doe.

Genealogical work and DNA testing led to a positive identification in July 2023: the boy was Keith Lavell Bibbs, a 16-year-old from Chicago. Eyler, who died in 1994, provided a posthumous confession describing picking up a hitchhiking teenager in July 1983, giving him alcohol and drugs, binding, blindfolding and gagging him, stabbing him multiple times, and burying him separately from the other victims because the teen was African-American.

No trial for this murder occurred; the family was notified of the identification and asked for privacy. Does anyone have information about Keith’s life or whereabouts in 1983 that could add context to his last months?
