On July 19, Michael Adamson,27, was found wrapped in a blanket and duct taped in a red sheet after someone reported seeing his body in a roadside ditch at 8900 Brae Acres Road.

Autopsy reports released on Monday show Adamson's primary cause of death as "undetermined."

On Friday, reports show Adamson's manner of death (homicide, suicide, accidental, natural or undetermined) was also ruled as "undetermined."

Kathleen Strole, Adamson's mother, told Eyewitness News in a previous report that she believes someone out there knows something about how her son died or who left him in the ditch.
