SEE GIVING DAY, PAGE 4 20-year-old found dead in Micanopy IT IS BEING INVESTIGATED AS A HOMICIDE By Katherine Wallace-Fernandez Alligator Staff Writer A missing 20-year-old man from Gilchrist County turned up dead in Micanopy on Monday. Deputies say he was killed. The man, who has been identifi ed as Daniel Schweitzer, had been reported missing since Feb. 3 and was thought to be headed toward Alachua County or Tampa. The Alachua County Sheriff’s Offi ce discovered his body when deputies received a call at 3:29 p.m. from a driver who was fl agged down by a person who spotted the decomposed body while walking down Country Road 234, said Lt. Brett Rhodenizer, an Alachua County Sheriff’s Offi ce spokesper- son. Deputies found the body underneath palm fronds in the area. Gilchrist County is about an hour away from Micanopy. The medical examiner’s offi ce and sheriff’s offi ce detec- tives confi rmed Tuesday that he was killed, according to the sheriff’s offi ce. It is unclear how or when he was killed. The body had been under palm fronds on the side of the road for days or weeks, Rhodenizer said. The witness told detectives a blanket and bags were nearby. “Whatever happened didn’t happen recently,” he said. “There’s nothing on scene or that we’ve been made aware of Samuel Thomas / Alligator Staff that causes us any concern for the sake of the community.” Anyone with information is asked to call the Criminal In- Sunset Strolling vestigations Division at 352-367-4170.

It’s among the largest recoveries by the Georgia State Patrol that Cherokee Judicial Circuit Assistant District Attorney Erle J. Newton ever heard of. “They found seven small boxes behind the driver’s seat of that car,” Newton said Tuesday in Bar- tow Superior Court. “Each of the boxes contained about 1,000 grams of methamphetamine.” The total amount of suspected methamphetamine found in Spotts’ vehicle by GSP officers on Nov. 16, Newton said, was about seven kilograms — more than 15 pounds of the drug. He also said that officers recovered “two sus- pected MDMA, or ecstasy, pills” from the automobile stopped in Bartow County, along with $893 in cash. In addition to the trafficking charge, Spotts is also facing one SEE TRAFFICKING, PAGE 5A RANDY PARKER/THE DAILY TRIBUNE NEWS A billboard on Joe Frank Harris Parkway in Cartersville offers congratulations to the area’s new hometown hero.
