James' roommate, ronald carpenter had discovered the body and called police. James was found nude and was the victim of a beating with a blunt object. The subsequent investigation by the monterey police detectives identified a potential suspect who was arrested within 3 days of the incident. This person was later released due to a lack of evidence. Both james and the suspect frequented the north fremont area of monterey including the nu-art adult bookstore on n.
