A decomposed body has been discovered amid the search efforts for a New York man who mysteriously disappeared last week in Turks and Caicos, according to local authorities.

During a search operation in Grace Bay, investigators found “the body of a deceased male in a decomposed state.” It remains unclear if this body is that of Brian Tarrence, who was reported missing on June 25, as per statements from the Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force, cited by CBS.

Tarrence, 51, a Manhattan resident, vanished three days after arriving on the picturesque Caribbean island for a romantic anniversary trip with his wife of one year. Surveillance footage captured him exiting his Airbnb at Paradise Inn in Grace Bay, Providenciales, at approximately 3:30 a.m.

His wife, who remains in Turks and Caicos, has hired a private investigator to abet the search.

Tarrence, the vice president of Diligent Software, had his cellphone and wallet when he left his rental and was in an area known to be safe, that private investigator claimed.

“So far, we haven’t been successful in anything, but we’re not giving up hope,” private investigator Carl DeFazio, a former NYPD cop and US Marine, told Fox News last week.

DeFazio stated that he is trying to obtain records of Tarrence’s phone activity while on the island in an attempt to piece together his movements and potentially find him alive.

The US State Department issued a travel advisory in March for tourists visiting the popular vacation island chain — with violent robberies rising by 143% and gun-related crimes up 123% in the year 2024, according to InSight Crime.

Investigators have stated that no criminality is yet suspected in Tarrence’s disappearance.
