PCSO investigates second dead body found in Stanfield in recent weeks

The Pinal County Sheriff’s Office reported finding a body in the desert at about noon July 13 near West Nelson Farm Road in Stanfield.

Vanessa White, a spokeswoman for the PCSO, said on Tuesday no further details are available because the case is still under investigation.

On July 2, Pinal County Sheriff’s deputies identified a body they found at 7:21 p.m. June 26 in a farm field southwest of Highway 84 and Canton Way in Stanfield.

The male body was found partially decomposed under a large mesquite tree and appeared to be a suicide where the man had hung himself with a shirt (see“PCSO investigates circumstances leading to the discovery of a dead body “).
