Tarrant ME looks for help in identifying eight men who died years ago

The eight men died between 1986 and 2009.

At least three are homicide victims. One died in a wreck. Another was accidentally crushed in a trash compactor after apparently falling asleep inside a garbage bin.

All are believed to be Hispanic men whose identities continue to elude authorities. This week, the Tarrant County medical examiner’s office released pictures of the men’s faces and/or tattoos in hopes that someone will be able to identify the men, all now buried in pauper's graves.
