We are asking for help raising funds for his funeral and burial,' wrote Sledge. 'He was a talented artist and father who is deserving of a funeral service. Sledge told Fox13 his son was resourceful, witty and generous and started a GoFundMe to cover the costs of Lindsay's funeral and a burial. It's just breaking me to pieces,' Darlene Lindsay, Lindsay's mother told the outlet. Shelbie Boyd of the Tacoma Police Department said: 'There were no homicidal injuries that were immediately observed, but we're still doing a thorough investigation, still waiting for that medical examiner's final cause of death.' I mean, that's our son, he's gone, and nobody is telling us anything,' he added. 'We just haven't got any answers that we're looking for. 'It was almost bittersweet because my son didn't die alone, is what I'm thinking,' he said. In a separate interview with KIRO7, he said he wanted answers. 'It's a grief you don't have any words for,' he said. 'No parents should ever hear that, let alone bury your son'. 'Shredded like trash and thrown on conveyor belts and crushed in the garbage can multiple times,' he added. 'Just a loving kid that's gone way too soon.' 'There's no way he deserved this,' he told the station. Stacey Hillis, the father of Zach, told Fox13 that his son had schizophrenia. JMK Fibers is a recycling facility that sorts and processes recyclables - it operates a 90,000 square foot building located on a 10-acre site within the Port of Tacoma, according to its website. Tacoma police have said they have no reason to suspect there was any foul play. The two bodies were found at JMK Fibers Recycling Center (pictured) which operates a 90,000 square foot building in the Port of Tacoma in Washington 'The description of the body after going through that even after it's found is horrendous.' 'We just hope and pray he wasn't alive when he was either put in there or in any process of this recycling center machinery,' said Lindsay's father, Oral Sledge.
Both served stints in prison, where they met, and struggled with drug addiction, according to their parents.īoth sets of parents expressed hope that their sons were not alive when they went in the trash shredder. It's unclear how they ended up in the plant or where they died.
To identify the men detectives used their fingerprints and in the case of Lindsay, a tattoo. Their bodies were recovered from the JMK Fibers Recycling Center in such bad condition both required closed casket funerals. Zach Hillis, 33, and Jeremy Lindsay, 36, were found dead on April 12 and April 15 respectively, according to the Pierce County Medical Examiner. The bodies of two men who met in prison were found 'shredded like trash' days apart in a recycling facility in Tacoma, Washington.
