FRANKLIN TWP., Pa. -- Tests Tuesday confirmed the remains found in a ditch in Franklin Township last week are those of a man who was reported missing in July 2004.

A construction worker discovered the bones of James Rapp Jr. near the offramp of Route 422 where it intersects with Highway 528 near Muddy Creek Township.

Rapp, 56, of Prospect, disappeared shortly after submitting a will to his attorney in which he allegedly admitted to thefts he committed against his daughter.

Rapp was charged with several crimes in 2004, including spending $26,000 on credit cards in his daughter's name and cashing in her IRA worth $5,200.

Investigators said they could not determine a cause of death because the bones were too decomposed.
