The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation says it has identified the second of two men found dead in a mobile home in Mannford on June 18, 2014.

The OSBI said Thursday that the state Medical Examiner's Office has identified the man as 53-year-old Don Ray Stanford.

The bodies of Stanford and 60-year-old Ward Ray Bartlett were found in Bartlett's mobile home by Pawnee County deputies conducting a welfare check at the request of a state health care worker. Authorities say Stanford was also living at the home.

The OSBI says it appears both men were shot to death, although the medical examiner's office has not issued an official cause of the deaths. Investigators believe the bodies had been inside the house for multiple days.
