2021 Mendocino County Death Being Reevaluated

Mendocino County authorities are re-examing the death of a man whose body was found at a Highway 101 underpass in 2021. Initially, the death of Thaddeus Bradley was attributed to a drug overdose based on toxicology report. That is now being revisited due to a new examination of his remains showing that Bradley suffered some injuries “at or near” the time of his death. Due to lack of evidence, his death is now being labeled as “Undetermined.” Bradley was a homeless man who traveled between Humboldt, Trinity and Mendocino counties over the last several years. He was 27-years-old when he died.
