Investigators believe fellow partiers who were with the victim may have panicked and then decided to transport and dump his lifeless body.

On Tuesday, OPP said it was seeking to identify three men that they believe could know more about how the victim died or why his body was abandoned. Police said Tuesday the men were seen in a silver pickup truck with a full cap on the back.

Anyone with information was asked to contact Grenville County-Kemptville OPP at 613-258-3441.

Meanwhile, the victim’s cousin said Deepak Beaudoin-Reichmann appeared outgoing, friendly and active in public, but privately he struggled with depression.
