Searches of obituaries and local cold case listings turned up no homicide entry for that name and date. An obituary for Jack Lee Crawford, 84, of Burlington, Iowa, reports he died at home on Wednesday, August 6, 2014, with no mention of foul play or a criminal investigation; that record appears to be for a different city.

Can anyone with local knowledge or records from Des Moines in August 2014 provide information about this name or clarify whether a homicide occurred?
