LPD says detectives were sent to the bridge Wednesday morning after someone doing excavation work in the area called 911 and said they found a skull and bones.

This is not far (less than 3 miles) from where Steven R. Pearsall – The Charley Project may have last been seen. It’s a little early since we know nothing about the remains but I thought of him.
He went missing on the same night as stepsisters Kristina Nelson, 21, and Jacqueline A. "Brandy" Miller, 18. The two women were last seen leaving Nelson's apartment to go to a grocery store. Both women knew Pearsall and he had a "big brother" type relationship with them. They lived only a few blocks from his apartment, and they would have passed the theater on their way to the store, and may have gone inside. Nelson had previously been a janitor at the theater, and when she quit, Pearsall replaced her.

Nelson and Miller's bodies were found in a canyon in Kendrick, Idaho almost two years after their disappearances; their homicides remain unsolved.

Police said a biological anthropologist said they were potentially ancestral remains, and they won't be investigated as a criminal case.



[...]
The Nez Perce Tribe will handle the case and decide how to proceed with the remains and the scene, police said.
