Has anyone heard any updates?

Has anyone heard any updates?

There have been no updates since December of 2017. One thing I found odd in the reporting is the missing posters on Facebook have them going missing from Vista California, with the vehicle found in Montana. Are there any records through credit cards that they were in the vehicle on that journey?

 

[ADKGemini]

Can't find any updates and still on Nameus...he has very distinct tattoos so perhaps matching needs to be done

Human remains found near I-90

...sbm

According to Mineral County Sheriff Mike Toth, a huckleberry picker found bones and a shoe near the Dena Mora rest area, a few hundred yards from the off-ramp on the Montana-Idaho border.

Toth said deputies from his department confirmed the remains were human. An investigator with the Montana Department of Criminal Investigation confirmed there were two sets of bones.

Toth took the remains to the state crime lab in Missoula for further investigation.

Toth believes the remains may be of a man and woman in their 20s who were reported missing from Issaquah, Washington, in 2017.

He said their vehicle was located on Dec. 2 at the Dena Mora rest stop, but a large search in both states turned up nothing.

 

[inmyhumbleopinion]

“Deputies responded to check on possible human remains found near the Dena Mora rest area. We believe this could possible be connected to a missing person case from 2017. Two young adults went missing from the rest area where their vehicle was found. This is a heavily wooded area and makes search extremely difficult. But last night some people out picking huckleberries found some bones scattered up and above the rest area about 200-300 years. (yards, IMO) State DCI was called and they assisted in the recovery of what remains could be found. Family’s were notified today of what was found and that DNA test will be done at the Montana Crime Lab. This could take 2-5 months to get any results back. We will update when we learn more.” (BBM)

I looked on google maps and the area looks heavily wooded, maybe that’s why they didn’t find the bodies during the initial search? I mean 200 yards seems pretty close.

 

[Darling136]

I hope this will resolve this case, somehow i always felt it did not get much attention, but maybe this is just my feeling.

 

[Cagle]

I'm curious if they think this is homicide or a murder-suicide, or some other fluke of a thing since they both ended up deceased.
