Not much new here -- but I did notice this source says the bones had been buried, while an earlier account said they had not been. So -- who knows?

I guess this one will have to wait for some more info, but if the bones had been there for a while, Melanie Warren is missing from Savannah since 1997. I did not see a thread for her here on WS, but a sad case where her father lost his son to murder in 1977 as well. Here is her Info:

Item at the link is very brief, so, per TOS, I can't quote from it -- mainly it confirms that a skull is what was found (or was among the bones found, hard to tell for sure).
