This disappearance happened close to where these remains were found. Crossing fingers.

"Authorities say human remains have been found on the bank of the Red River near Oslo.

The Polk County Sheriff's Office tells KFGO radio that two men who were fishing Saturday afternoon found bones and a skull."

I also posted in the UID thread. This river floods frequently, so human remains along it likely will be washed downstream within a short amount of time. Therefore, I'm doubting this connection.

[h=1]Could remains thaw 20 year old cold case?[/h]

A mystery continues tonight in the Red River Valley as the medical examiner works to identify human remains found along the Red River.


Police in one community hope this could be the break that thaws a two decades old cold case.

When the news broke it's a thought that crossed many in the city of Warren and across the northern Valley.

The Safranski case which hasn't been solved,” said Warren resident Rena LaCoursiere.

Are human remains found along the Red River near Oslo that of 40-year old Veronica Safrasnki?

“It would be good for the family to have closure,” commented Stacy Balzum of Warren.

The Red River has been searched as part of the Sanfranski investigation. The remains were found about 3 miles south of the Olso boat launch an area that had not been searched.

“The Red River was always a place of interest,” said the Sheriff.

Sheriff Boman, who has been working the case from day 1, says though clothing found at the scene does not match what Veronica Safranski was last seen wearing.

“I'm not going to say I'm optimistic yet, I don’t want to jump the gun,” said Boman.

While it will be a few days before a positive ID will be made, this appears to be another heart wrenching setback for Safransk's loved ones, investigators and the community.

“There's always hope, there's hope,” said LaCoursiere.
