Overview of the Lake Powell Death
The body of a man was found floating in Lake Powell on March 10th, 2018. The cause of death is still unknown and the investigation is ongoing. However, some believe that the man may have died as a result of a drowning accident.
In December 2017, deputies responded to a report of an overturned boat near the dam on Lake Powell. When they arrived, they found two people in the water: one unconscious and the other dead. It was later determined that the unconscious person had been female and the man who died was her husband. At this time, investigators did not think that there was any link between the overturned boat and the husband’s death, but they are still investigating what happened.

authorities are now investigating this new theory and hope to finally solve the mystery of John Stone’s death.
