Sonora, CA…A death investigation is underway after the body of a man was found over the weekend. Late Friday evening our office received a report of a deceased person in a remote unincorporated area between Jamestown and Sonora. Deputies searched the area but did not locate anyone at that time due to darkness. At daybreak on Saturday, with additional resources, Deputies found the body of a deceased man in a wooded area South of Gibbs Tower.
