New details emerge in death of Glynn Co. commissioner

Posted: Updated:

GLYNN CO., GA (WTOC) -

Investigators are still trying to find clues in the death of Glynn County Commissioner Tom Sublett.

Sublett's body was found nearly a month ago at a marina near his home on St. Simons Island. An autopsy confirmed he had been shot in the head, but ruled the cause of death as a drowning.

Now, investigators say they found two empty prescription bottles and unfired bullets in his car, but detectives have yet to locate a gun.

Police have been investigating Commissioner Sublett's death as a homicide, but are not ruling out suicide.
