The identity has been released for one of two men found inside a home near Mannford earlier this week.
The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation said one of the men found dead on Wednesday in a home along West Basin Road has been identified as Ward Ray Bartlett, 60.
The Pawnee County sheriff said a physical therapist with home health went to the mobile home for a scheduled weekly visit on Thursday, but couldn't get in and called for help. Deputies discovered the bodies around 12:30 p.m. in separate rooms.
Investigators believe the bodies had been inside the house for multiple days.

The deaths are being treated as suspicious and OSBI is investigating the possibility of murder-suicide.
The medical examiner will determine the cause and manner of death of both men.
