Archie Stewart, 33, of Barstow, California, was found dead after having been shot; deputies say his death was a homicide. Stewart’s body was discovered buried on the property of 42-year-old prospector Scott Brodie after a K9 trained to detect human remains alerted to a spot during a search on May 16, 2017. The remains were identified by fingerprint analysis.

Brodie was detained at the scene, arrested for Stewart’s murder and booked into the High Desert Detention Center without bail; he pleaded not guilty at his arraignment in Victorville. Investigators say the case is supported by the search scene, witness interviews and forensic identification.

Does anyone have information about Stewart’s last known movements or contacts in Barstow that could help clarify what led to his death?
