An 89-year-old man whose body was discovered in a large suitcase on a rural Arkansas farm was a World War II veteran from New York, police say. “Instead, he ends up in a suitcase dumped in a field in Arkansas.”Police said Brooks, who was 4 feet 11 inches tall, wasn’t dismembered. Gilbo said authorities will not be extraditing them to New York because of Arkansas’ strict laws on abuse of a corpse. In New York, the offense is punishable by three years in prison, while in Arkansas it is punishable by 10 years. “It’s the most dangerous assignment in war,” Prairie County Sheriff Rick Hickman said.
