-------------------

The deceased body of CNET editor James Kim has been found. "At 12:03 hours, the body of James Kim was located at the bottom of Big Windy Creek," Oregon State Police Lt. Gregg Hastings said at a press conference. He offered no other details.

Arrangements are being made to transport Kim to an undisclosed location, according to a police statement. Kim had been missing in the remote southwestern Oregon wilderness for 11 days. The family has asked not to be contacted.

"They have been true champions throughout this whole ordeal," Josephine County Undersheriff Brian Anderson said of the family at a press conference. "We just want them to know our prayers have been with them from day one."

After being rescued in good condition Monday, Kim's 30-year-old wife, Kati, and daughters Penelope (4 years) and Sabine (7 months) have been reunited with family members. Kati Kim suffered frostbite on two toes, but will not lose those toes, according to a close family friend. James Kim, 35, left the stranded family car Saturday morning to search for help.

Sounds more likely that he was murdered from the series of events it's the classic, looking for help and never returning incident.

Their car broke down and were stuck for a few days. James went into the woods to look for help but never came back and was found a few days later. He probably died from hypothermia.
