The body of a Missouri emergency room doctor who has been missing for more than a week has been found in northwest Arkansas, his brother said.
"We had dinner Wednesday before he disappeared, and we sat and talked for three hours," Richard Forsyth said."I told him this is the happiest I'd seen him in a long time. His divorce was final May 11, and I think that gave him energy for the future."
Phone and email messages left Tuesday with Cassville police were not immediately returned. Police have said there were no signs of foul play. Richard Forsyth said his brother had been at the Cassville hospital for about 15 years. He described John Forsyth as a doting father, family physician and part-time math nerd.
"He really cared about his patients," Richard Forsyth said, adding that his brother stayed in his RV near the hospital when he was on call."And he loved his kids." there was one person who they believed was upset with his brother, but that individual was overseas, and he said he is confident the incident is not relevant to the investigation.
"He expressed some extreme emotions towards us that he would get revenge. And ultimately his campaign failed, and we didn't hear from him again," said Richard Forsyth."I don't see that being enough motivation for someone to cross the Atlantic and cause trouble."
