RedactedNarrative: On 09/19/15 at approximately 0730hrs, I was notified by Sgt. the SOD Duty Officer, to respond to the Craft Haven Campground, located at 900 Carpenter Point Rd, Perryville, for a missing person from a vessel.   The campground is located upon the Northeast River and has a marina. Sgt. was notified by DNR Communications. While en route, I was briefed by Cpl., who was already on the scene per Duty Officer Sgt..  
  
   Upon my arrival, I conducted several interviews and learned the following:
     
    On 09/18/15 around 1900hrs, the missing person, who was later found deceased was at his camper, located at campsite #F24, consuming alcoholic beverages with his neighboring camp site friends when he stepped away to take a work-related phone call from a co-worker at Lanchester Landfill.  The phone call angered Victim, who told friends that he needed to “get away” for a few minutes.  Victim immediately took off on his golf cart.  Victim had not been seen or heard from since.
  
   Friends found Victim's blue golf cart parked by the dock and found that his boat, a 23' Pro-Line center console, gone from its assigned slip at Craft Haven Campground.  Friends were interviewed separately; they both indicated they assumed Victim went out on the water and would return later in the evening.
    
   Then, at approximately 0300hrs on 09/19/15, the Coast Guard received a call reference a center console vessel, later found to belong to Victim, running in circles unoccupied in the area described above.  The Coast Guard and NRP units responded and stopped the vessel, which was indeed unoccupied.   A search for Victim ensued at that time.
     
     After being briefed on the incident, I called co-worker to obtain further information.  Co-worker told me that she called Victim at 1909hrs on his cell phone, and told him that his employees at the landfill failed to repair a track loader.  Co-worker was very emotional and told me to call her if I needed any more information.
  
   I then responded to Victim's campsite, where his vehicle was parked.  Friends had indicated to Sgt. that there was probably a handgun, which they knew Victim to carry, in the center console.  Victim's vehicle was searched and a Ruger 9mm was located in a black nylon holster.  A stolen check on the handgun was negative.  The handgun was secured at that time.  I photographed Victim's vehicle, a Chevrolet truck bearing Pennsylvania tag WR90761.
     
     I then entered Victim's camper and photographed the inside.  Nothing out of the ordinary was noted.  Victim had several prescription bottles in plain view on the kitchen table for high blood pressure.  None appeared to be controlled dangerous substances.  I noted several bottles of liquor, which I also photographed.  It appeared as if Victim was a heavy smoker.  This was later confirmed by Friends.
  
   I then responded back to Victim's vessel, a 23' Pro Line bearing Maryland registration 4257 BU (registered to him), which was docked in his slip.  I photographed the vessel and found nothing out of the ordinary.  I photographed the track line from the vessel's GPS, and noted that at 1929hrs the vessel was heading south when it turned abruptly towards the northeast.  The vessel then began going in circles as shown on the GPS.  I searched all storage areas of the vessel with nothing abnormal noted.  The vessel was kept at it's assigned dock at the Craft Haven Campground.
       
     I then conducted several checks and found that Victim's cell phone was serviced by AT&T.  I called AT&T and requested his phone number be pinged due to exigency; the resultant location and time of last cell tower communication is consistent with where Victim's vessel was found unoccupied, and the time he went out on the water.  The last communication between Victim's cell phone and the tower was at 1930hrs, the same time the vessel began going in circles.
       
     I then learned that Victim's wife is out of the country after speaking with his step-son.   According to
