Resolved MO - Kansas City, Bones on bank of Missouri River, Sep'13 - Not human

[sophiafox]

New human bones found. Not much said and not sure if the location might have to do with some of this missing women around there. I sure hope they solve something instead of just bringing up new crimes.

I wonder if they are adult sized or baby sized?

Thinking about Baby Lisa Irwin.

KANSAS CITY, MO (KCTV) -
Another potentially disturbing discovery was made at Berkley Riverfront Park after police said someone found bones.

Police were called to the scene north of downtown Kansas City about 8 p.m. Wednesday.

Investigators said they are still trying to figure out if the remains are human bones or bones of an animal.

This is the second set that have been found in 2 weeks.

Sources close to the investigation said a skull, a rib, a hand and part of a vertabrae were found. However, a source told FOX 4′s Rob Collins that they believe the bones were too small to be human. The medical examiner took the bones to the lab for further analysis.

Well, a human skull is pretty distinctive! Surely there aren't any wild monkeys roaming the banks of this river.

Yes, and a dog skull is pretty distinctive too, no matter the breed. I think we can say that the bones are not adult-sized human bones based on the size. The reporter in the video said that a source told him the hand was more like a foot. He didn't say paw so...I guess we'll find out soon if they are non-human bones.

I hope that, if nothing else, every time a little bone is found in Missouri, a certain guilty woman feels terrible for what she did.

I get my hopes up every time. Lisa deserves justice.

 

[Rainstorm]

More bones could "wash up" or come about. Lisa does deserve some justice.

I'm a bit over an hour from Kansas City & the Missouri river is well known here as a dumping ground for bodies. There have been reports of whole cars being lost in there, never to be discovered. This is OT, but gives you an idea of the size of this river:

That still leaves at least one, possibly two, sets of remains that have not yet been classified. I have been watching for them to be entered on NAMUS, and that hasn't happened yet, so I don't know whether to assume that means they have already been identified and don't need to be entered, or they are just moving very very slowly. I wonder, hypothetically of course, how a suspect being the next of kin would affect the process of notification? Or would it?

 

[HMSHood]

I wonder how long they date back.
