A big twist in a Sparta homicide case with ties to Neillsville. The body of a man named as a primary suspect in a double homicide has been pulled from a Sparta creek.Police say 37-year-old Troy Hogan of Sparta was found dead in Beaver Creek.
Hogan was named this month in connection to the deaths of Connie DeGeorge and her live-in boyfriend, Kale Kvistad the second. The two were last seen in March 2002. A hunter found their bones in the woods in the town of New Lyme in December 2004. Both had been shot in the head.
Besides Hogan, 36-year-old Larry Schaffer of Neillsville is also considered a suspect. He's still in custody on an unrelated sexual assault charge.
