''In March 2023, human cranial remains were found near a car wash on Terry Road in Jackson, Mississippi. After a thorough search of the area revealed no further remains, the case was handed over to the Mississippi Office of the State Medical Examiner in Pearl, Mississippi, and recorded under the identifier ME23- 0229. In October 2023, the case was transferred to Anthropology for the development of a biological profile and positive identification. The skull, which was fully skeletonized and in poor condition was analyzed, suggesting the remains were likely those of an adult male. Details of the case were entered
into the National Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) as UP112359.''
''A follow-up investigation led law enforcement to potential relatives of the unknown man. DNA reference testing was performed, confirming the identity of the man as Elton Orlando Jackson, born on May 25, 1958. Mr. Jackson disappeared in 2016 after telling his girlfriend he would walk to a nearby store. His phone was returned by an unidentified individual after his disappearance, and he was officially reported missing on January 3, 2017.

The identification of Elton Orlando Jackson represents the 24th case in the State of Mississippi where officials have publicly identified an individual using technology developed by Othram.''
