Police Identify Bodies in Last Week's Suspicious Deaths

The bodies of two Gwinnett residents were found on a service road near New Hope Road

Gwinnett County Police have identified the bodies of two people found dead on Service Drive in unincorporated Lawrenceville last week. Investigators say they were 52 year old Perry James Taylor and Jennifer Carman, 37. Both were residents of Lawrenceville. 

Autopsies have been conducted on Taylor and Carman and toxicology results are pending. Investigators say there does not appear to be foul play involved in their deaths. 

Police were called to the scene Friday after receiving a call from someone about people possibly illegally dumping garbage on the private property. Upon arrival, officers found a red Ford F-150 pickup truck. Inside the cab of the truck was the body of Taylor. Carman's body was found just outside the truck.
