After Saving For Big Birthday Trip, Woman Instead Uses Money To Fund DNA Research Giving Young Murder Victim Her Name Back
Rather than take a blowout vacation for her 40th birthday, Catherine Serbousek decided to use the money to fund research into a 1982 Mississippi cold case victim known as "Delta Dawn."

A New York City mother who had saved up money to do a blowout vacation for her 40th birthday instead used the money to fund research into an unsolved child murder case, which has led to the identity of previously unidentified remains.
Catherine Serbousek, an audiobook editor and mother of two young children, told
Oxygen.com that a particular unsolved crime struck a chord with her while she was growing up in Arkansas. When she was about 8, she was watching the local news and saw a story about a murder that had occurred in the bordering state of Mississippi several years earlier.

When Serbousek turned 40 last year, Dawn resurfaced in her mind. Serbousek, whose own father died when he was 40, was experiencing some existential dread around her birthday and didn’t feel like taking the big birthday trip she'd saved for. Instead, she decided to use the money to contribute to assisting unsolved crimes. For her, it was no question: Dawn had to be the first case she wanted to see movement in.
So, Serbousek called the local sheriff’s department that investigated Dawn’s death and told them she wanted to help. They then transported Dawn's remains from Mississippi to Othram Labs in Texas, which analyzed them thanks to the funding Serbousek provided.

While the full mystery of what happened to the mother and child has yet to be revealed, Serbousek is happy that the girl she figured she could have been friends with now has a name.

Serbousek said she is now starting the process of funding another case: the body of a Black male, aged 18 to 21, who was also pulled from the same body of water as Heinrich in 1982. He has never been identified. Investigators believe that his body was there for six months before Heinrich's, local outlet
WLOX reports. She also plans to fund a case of an unidentified kidnapping victim from the 1940s.
