It was a young guy who had been missing for about five years I think.

Did they say how he died? Seems strange a body lying for 5 years and not being noticed. Holyrood parks always busy especially in summer.

I meant to follow up on the story for the very reasons you mention but never did. Would be interesting to find out.

Find it hard to believe that your body could lie in the middle of a city for 5 years, and no-one notice. When you consider the amount of people that use the park, it's amazing. Just shows you what a wilderness we have in our midst.

Must be awful for the guy's family, my heart goes out to them.
