University Of Minnesota Student Found Dead In Boxcar

A University of Minnesota student recently arrested on charges of child porn distribution has been found dead, the Minnesota Daily reports.

Keaton Patrick Murphy's body was discovered in a boxcar near TCF Bank Stadium.

The Daily reports a gory, chilling scene where the student's body was found:

Several hours after the body's discovery, frozen, black blood coated the platform at the end of the boxcar, and was spattered in the snow surrounding it. Blood stains reached as high as several feet on the wall of the car, and were smeared on a ladder rung leading into it. A single handprint was visible in the blood-stained compartment.

According to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, Murphy was "stunned and shocked" by the child porn allegations. He disappeared after being released from jail Jan. 20. His family feared he was suicidal.
