RCMP, family say Cody Wolfe’s remains found almost 10 years after his disappearance

There may be some measure of closure for the family of a teenager who disappeared from the Muskowekwan First Nation nearly a decade ago.

Seventeen-year-old Cody Wolfe went missing in April of 2011 after last being seen leaving his grandmother’s house. It’s believed that Wolfe never made it to his destination that night.

On Facebook, his family wrote the boy’s remains have been found.

“It’s not the ending I was hoping for, but the wondering has now come to an end,” wrote Amber Wolfe, Cody’s sister.

“I’d like to thank Lloyd Goodwill and the search team from CTK who has helped us for so many years and people from surrounding reserves and Muskowekwan who took the time to come and help search over the 9 years.”

In the post, Wolfe also thanked police for their efforts in the search for her brother.

In a media release Thursday, the RCMP confirmed the remains were those of Wolfe. The Mounties also said the teen’s death isn’t considered suspicious.

According to the release, the Punnichy RCMP got a report May 7 that human remains had been found on a small island on the Muskowekwan First Nation.

Two male youths were paddling a boat in a small body of water on the First Nation looking for goose eggs when they stopped to explore a small island. The youths found the remains and subsequently the RCMP was called.

An autopsy was completed Wednesday and the remains were confirmed to be those of Wolfe.

“Based on information gathered during the investigation and autopsy, Cody’s death is not considered suspicious,” the RCMP said.

The RCMP noted the area where the remains were found was surrounded by water and had been submerged intermittently over the years. The island only recently became exposed, the RCMP said.
