Washington County Body Identified

(Cadet, MO.) Washington County Officials say the body found Wednesday off Radio Station Road at Cadet is that of 38 year old Michael Eckhoff. Police say foul play is not suspected on Eckhoff's death and he lived in the area where his body was found. He was reported missing last Thursday. According to Washington County Sheriff Zach Jacobsen Deputies were dispatched to the address for a deceased person and they found Eckhoff's body. Now that foul play has been ruled out, a toxicology testing will be performed. The results won't be back for about six weeks. The Sheriff also says he wants to thank the Washington County Coroner's Office, officials with the Missouri State Highway Patrol, and members of the Potosi Fire Protection District for their efforts in the investigation.
