John David Smith was convicted of killing his first wife Janice Hartman in 1974 (killed in Ohio, dumped in Indiana) and his second wife Betty Gladden Smith 1991 in West Windsor, New Jersey.

When he was arrested in Escondido, CA in October 2000, several pictures as well as yet unidentified skull fragments were found in his possession.

These are the images I could find, although in bad resolution for the time being.

edit: Just saw that one was identified, I'm not sure about the other, though.
