Loveless likely died around 1916 at age 46, the organization said. He appears to have been killed and dismembered. Before his death, Loveless had been arrested at least twice for bootlegging and escaped custody by sawing through jail bars, the organization said
Around that time Clark County Sheriff Bart May said Loveless killed his wife with an ax and was incarcerated in what was then Freemont County. He escaped again, this time using a saw he hid in his shoe, the organization said. He was never seen again.
About 12 years later, a mummified hand was found, along with an arm and two legs wrapped in burlap in the same cave system. Volunteer staff and students from Idaho State University continued to comb through the cave but never found any other remains, including the body's head, the organization said.

Victim of a serial killer? I can understand pissing someone off and getting killed, but then dismembered?

Nah, just drill a hole in his skull and hang him like a Christmas ornament. He’ll be just a daed.

Real peach of a guy
Killed his wife. More than likely, the wife's family got payback.
To: Pilgrim's Progress
If they can’t find his head they’re probably having trouble locating his skull. Things are funny that way.
