Human remains found in a trash bag nearly 40 years ago have been identified as those of Frank “Frankie” Little Jr., a guitarist and songwriter for the R&B group The O’Jays, police said.
The partial remains - first discovered in February 1982 in a garbage bag behind a now-shuttered business in Twinsburg, Ohio - were identified as Little’s using DNA provided by a close relative, police said in a statement Tuesday.
“In October 2021, the DNA Doe Project provided the names of potential living relatives, who were able to provide Frank’s name,” Twinsburg police said, adding that Little’s identity was later confirmed by a medical examiner who ruled his death a homicide.
“Not much is known about his disappearance and death,” police said. “Our sympathies to the family during this difficult time.”

“He came out with us when we first ventured out of Cleveland and traveled to Los Angeles, but was also in love with a woman in Cleveland that he missed so much that he soon returned back to Cleveland after a short amount of time,” the band said.
“That was in mid-1960s and we had not heard from him after then,” the statement continued. “Although this sounds like a tragic ending, we wish his family and friends closure to what appears to be a very sad story.”

Who?
They were definitely influenced by it. Their music tried for that same cool vibe.

Three Degrees was one of my favorite groups. A couple of their songs rush strong memories to my mind when they’re played on our oldies station.
Notice the new lyrics: “Get on the Biden train Biden train”. Bleccch!
Yes, yes, For the Love of Money IS a great song. It’s got an ancient message, but a super modern sound.
The O’Jays were great!
So sorry this man’s life ended so dreadfully.

Not to argue, but O’Jays were TSOP.
I assume the 993rd was one too many arguments.
What dey do?
OHIO PING!
Please let me know if you want on or off the Ohio Ping list.
