I wasn't 100% sure, my knowledge on which details are mandatory here in the UK to be taken by the coroner/forensics teams is not extensive.. but i did have my doubts since in at least this case there seems to be absolutely no DNA info or samples to be found ANYWHERE or even any clue they've been taken at all.
If you ask me, i think its insane that they don't ALWAYS take DNA samples from remains, surely it should just be a given??
So many things could be gleaned from it; ethnicity, so many physical characteristics, their definitive sex. It seems such a necessary massive piece of information
They did take DNA and the inquest heard that they couldn’t match it anywhere:
Woman's body washed up on the beach still unidentified nearly six months later
Truth is, a person who lays dead for two years unclaimed and unnoticed probably had a similarly disconnected life. For one reason or another.
