man of second-degree murder and other charges stemming from the disappearance of a mining claim partner whose body was found buried in the desert a decade later.Superior Court jury in Prescott on Thursday convicted Anthony James Richards, 59, of Terrebonne, of second-degree murder in the killing of Larry Powers, the County Attorney’s Office said Friday.
Richards also was convicted of trafficking in stolen property, theft of a credit card, forgery, and 19 counts of taking the identity of another, the office said.Richards and Powers were partners in a mining claim outside of Bagdad, Arizona, in a sparsely populated area of west-central Arizona. A family member reported Powers missing in June 2007 after he and Richards were last seen together buying mining gear that April.
Powers’ disappearance remained unsolved until a 2016 cold-case investigation resulted in the discovery of Powers’ buried remains near a campsite used by the two men.
