“HE WILL NEVER BE FOUND OUT HERE”!!! BELIEVE IT OR NOT, AUTHORITIES SAY A MISSING CHARLOTTE TATTOO ARTIST WAS SHOT, STABBED AND LEFT PARTLY BURIED ON A COLLEGE CAMPUS PRESERVE… AND OFFICIALS HAVE NOW RULED HIS DEATH A HOMICIDE.
In May, Carlos Enrique Leon Aristoteles was reported missing from Charlotte, the Salisbury Police Department said in a June 4 news release.
Aristoteles, a 38-year-old father of two children, worked as a tattoo artist in Charlotte, WSOC-TV reported.
Prior to the discovery, his family and friends were “extremely” concerned for his “safety and well-being,” the department said in a May 29 news release.
After Aristoteles went missing, his sister, Ana Tiznado, said she took time off from her job to search for him, WSOC-TV reported.
She flew from California to North Carolina to search for her missing brother.
She searched for three weeks until she needed to fly back home.
On June 3, a Catawba College employee discovered Aristoteles dead in Salisbury, authorities said.
The employee found the 38-year-old in a remote area of the Catawba College Ecological Preserve.
Aristoteles’ body was found partly buried on the college campus in the wake of his disappearance, according to reports.
The location of the preserve was more than 40 miles away from where the victim was last seen alive, authorities said.
The school’s campus is located about a 45-mile drive northeast from Charlotte, Salisbury police said.
Salisbury police have also said that Aristoteles was not a Catawba College student.
Months passed after his body was discovered on the campus grounds.
Then a medical examiner ruled the North Carolina tattoo artist’s death a homicide, according to reports.

The North Carolina State Medical Examiner recently determined Aristoteles was shot and stabbed, according to an autopsy report viewed by WSOC-TV.
But the medical examiner’s report on Aristoteles’ death did not indicate whether a suspect has been identified in connection with the homicide, per the television station.
A potential motive for the killing is unclear.
Tiznado spoke with WCNC-TV about how her brother’s body was uncovered on the preserve.
“Obviously, it’s not just like somebody killed him and he was left for dead,” Tiznado said while speaking with WCNC-TV, referring to how her brother was found buried.
She told WCNC-TV that her brother was a “good man.”
She also described him as a “respectful” and “loyal person.”
“Doesn’t matter if he knew you for a day or ten years or all his life. He had strong values,” Tiznado said.
Tiznado also spoke to WSOC-TV regarding the loss of her brother.
Aristoteles’ sister told the television station that she wants justice for her brother.
She said that his children “deserve answers.”
“Anybody who knew Carlos, they got to witness a very noble person, a strong-minded person,” Tiznado said of her brother.
And the Salisbury Police Department asked for help from the public in June.
The Salisbury Police Department said in June that: “Anyone with information regarding this investigation is encouraged to contact Detective Lieutenant Casper at 704-638-5333. Anonymous tips may also be submitted through Crime Stoppers at 1-866-639-5245.”
She wants justice.
His children deserve answers.
