Coroner gives update on human remains found
Clay County Coroner Jarrod Becknell says it could be months before the human remains found on Little Creek may be identified.
Becknell told The Enterprise, he had been in contact with the state medical examiner Tuesday morning and the remains had been sent for further review.
“I was told they had been sent to a forensic anthropologist and we may not have anything definitive for a few months,” the coroner said.
Since 2016, four people in Clay County have been reported missing and never found.
On December 15, 2020, Robert “Bob” Estep, 69, left his home to go deer hunting off Ky. 149 at Hector and was never heard from again.
