This file concerns the Baltimore Police Department's investigation into the 2006 suspicious death of Rey Rivera. FBI Baltimore and the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime requested a Behavioral Analysis Unit review of a letter found on Rivera's desk after he disappeared and was later found dead at the Belvedere Hotel. The released records include a May 2006 Baltimore field-office communication forwarding the letter and an August 2006 BAU analytical report based on limited police materials. The report describes Rivera's disappearance, the recovery of his vehicle and body, the medical examiner's undetermined finding, and the BAU's assessment that the letter's language could be consistent with delusional or bipolar thinking while noting that the available investigation had not documented mental illness.
