  • The remains of Nicholas Paul Grubb, a man found frozen in a Pennsylvania cave in 1977, were identified nearly 50 years later using old-fashioned detective work rather than advanced technology.
  • Grubb’s body was discovered by hikers near the Pinnacle in Albany Township, and his death was determined to be from a drug-induced overdose with no signs of foul play.
  • The case was finally solved when a Pennsylvania State Police detective found Grubb’s lost fingerprint card from 1977, leading to a positive identification through the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs).
