22 - The Mysterious Death of Ricky McCormick

22 - The Mysterious Death of Ricky McCormick

Ricky C McCormick was born in1958 in Missouri, USA. McCormick dropped out of school without being able to fully read or write. According to his family, the most that Ricky was able to spell was his own name and often needed help filling out job applications.

So when his body was found in an isolated cornfield just off Route 367 in West Alton, Missouri the case seemed an open and close drug-related homicide. That was until Police discovered a mysterious cipher on Ricky, leading them down a rabbit hole that has never been decoded.

Even the FBI has been unable to crack the code found on Ricky in 1999, so what was someone who was supposedly illiterate doing with a complex cipher? This is the mysterious death of Ricky McCormick.

If you have an idea how to break the code, have seen similar codes, or have any information about the Ricky McCormick case, you are urged to contact the FBI via the following link. http://forms.fbi.gov/code

Alternatively, you can write to the CRRU at the following address: FBI Laboratory, Cryptanalysis and Racketeering Records Unit, 2501 Investigation Parkway, Quantico, VA 22135, Attn: Ricky McCormick Case.
