Looking ominous my friends.

Pipkin family waits for ID after remains located in Florence County

Her mother, Gail, says she believes in her heart the remains found are those of her daughter.

"She's not all together, you know," Gail added. "They're still looking for the rest of her.

Remains are of a woman!

It could be Monday before the woman's identity can be determined, von Lutcken said.

Sounds like they weren't really considering this could be Heather even from the beginning (based on wording in first report). Leads me to believe they know what happened to her and that they don't even have hope her body will be recovered. Just my opinion/interpretation!

Heather isn't the only woman missing in Horry County. These remains were found just downriver from where Angie Pipkin's murderer is thought to have thrown her body in the river, so it's much more likely to be Angie.

Brittanee Drexel is also missing in Horry County.

What a freaking nightmare.

Prayers for the family of whoever she is

Brittanee Drexel is also missing in Horry County.

Also Zach Malinowski, though it sounds like they have determined it's a woman.

My heart goes out to her mother. How devastating.

So they can get an ID on these by Monday and the remains in Deland are still confounding everyone to the point where they can't even say whose remains those AREN'T? Fascinating....

WBTW covered this case again in their evening broadcast. They interviewed Angie's mom and daughter. Angie Pipkin's mother thinks this is her. LE says Angie was dismembered. Possibly the remains show indications of that.

As desolate as this area is, I think it was Divine Providence that this woman was found at all.

Right?

I also heard on the radio this morning 103.9 that the initial autopsy confirmed the remains to be female. Sorry, no link to support. I saw the interview with Angie's mom and daughter last night... very sad...

This article says female too ...

I thought the same thing. Really makes me wonder about the differences in the condition of both set of remains. Or that maybe the remains found in Deland are those of a child or adult not from the U.S.?

I have no problem with them being unable to identify those remains, but I'm not understanding why they cannot say with certainty that they were NOT Angie Pipkin's, or Heather Elvis' or Brittanee Drexel's or any other missing person that it obviously is not. They must be so far gone that they can't get any kind of DNA analysis from them?

Thinking of Angie and her family today ...

 

[zelmajane]

I always thought identification with teeth would be easier. Maybe there are no teeth?

There have been no reports that there was a skull - just body parts.
