Goliad County John Doe was a man who died after getting struck by airplane propeller in Goliad County, Texas, in 1986.
Case[]
After an attempt to guide the pilot of a stolen plane, the decedent was accidentally killed on or around March 17, 1986. Although his death is described as accidental, someone (perhaps the pilot) attempted to conceal his body in the San Antonio River. Investigators reached this conclusion after tissue fragments were noticed on aircraft wreckage (also subjected to arson) about four miles from where the decedent was recovered.
