Jerry Michael Lawson, 59, was found dead in an abandoned house on the 2000 block of East 37th Street in Savannah on Friday, March 18, 2016. Violent Crimes detectives from the Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department responded and treated the death as suspicious. The Georgia Bureau of Investigations Crime Lab was scheduled to perform an autopsy on Monday, March 22.

Police said Metro’s Criminal Investigations and Patrol divisions used K-9 and Forensics units in the initial probe, but there have been no subsequent public updates about the autopsy results or any arrests. It remains unclear whether Lawson’s death was the result of foul play and no suspects have been publicly identified.
