"Feared dead" refers to a situation where there is a strong belief or assumption that someone has died, but their death has not been officially confirmed. This phrase is often used in reports about missing persons, especially in contexts such as natural disasters or conflicts, where the person's fate is uncertain. It indicates a high level of concern for the individual's well-being while acknowledging that there is no definitive evidence of their death.
The only context I could image "to be feared dead" to make any sense in would be for example: "Pete has been missing for over 6 weeks now, and he is feared (to be) dead". Basically if people don't know your whereabouts and seriously believe you may be dead, you would be feared to be dead.
