The Daily Prophet - 4 August, 1987

BODY FOUND CONFIRMED TO BE CARROW'S. KILLER REMAINS UNKNOWN.

The Department of Magical Law Enforcement has confirmed that the body removed from an abandoned Underground station in London last week was that of Marcus Carrow. The decomposed state of the body indicated that Carrow's death occurred some time ago, likely when he went missing from his home last summer. Similar to the string of now confirmed muggle-born killings, and last summer's attack on the Hogwart's Express, Aurors are not believed to have any strong leads. The lack of resolution on these cases has resulted in a loss of confidence in the Aurors and The Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

Carrow is survived by his wife, Emily, and their two children, Rhodus and Amelia.
