Investigators: Kentucky Census Worker Killed Himself

Ummm, yea.

A Kentucky census worker found hanging from a tree with the word “fed” written on his chest killed himself and staged his death to look like a murder, authorities said Tuesday.

Kentucky State Police said Bill Sparkman died at the same location where his body was found Sept. 12 near a cemetery in a heavily wooded area of southeastern Kentucky.

A man who discovered the body in the Daniel Boone National Forest said the 51-year-old was bound with duct tape, gagged and had an identification badge taped to his neck.

Police told a news conference Tuesday that Sparkman was naked except for socks and had his glasses taped to his face “so he could see what he was doing.”

Investigators say Sparkman acted alone in manipulating the scene to conceal the suicide.

They believe he killed himself and made it look like a murder because he’d recently taken out two life insurance policies that wouldn’t pay out for suicide.
