Tragedy struck Clayton County when the body of 31-year-old aspiring TikToker Jiare Schneider, known as "Big_Homie_TooTall," was found in a wooded area off Brown Road in Jonesboro. Schneider had been missing since November 15, after a night out, and was last seen at a local nightclub and a nearby content house. Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding his death, according to 11Alive

Clayton County Police found Schneider's body in a silver Toyota 4Runner that crashed into the woods. The crash seemed to happen at high speed. A family friend, Germequa Bell, said they focused their search on places Schneider had been. They later used his cellphone data to track him down to Brown Road, where they found the car, as reported by 11Alive.

James Schneider's body was found near James H. Brown Elementary School, close to an intersection that had been blocked off due to construction. His family expressed frustration with the lack of help during the search. "Of course, [we’re] relieved that we found him, but still angry that we didn’t get the resources, the help that we were asking," Germequa Bell told FOX 5. The investigation has been handed over to the Criminal Investigations Division, and foul play is still being considered.
