So bizarre, the worker discovered a human skull in 1970, and just decided to turn it in now?

I wish we had a more precise location and a PMI.

There's something very disturbing about these kinds of cases, there could be lies in his story, who knows if it even was 1970 where he found it? Hopefully they can do genetic genealogy or something.

Amazing. I wonder who the skull belonged to.
When I first saw that the profile was down I thought that maybe it was connected by DNA to another set of remains and the two profiles combined, but then I checked the solved cases in PA and that number also went up by one case, so it looks like there's been an identification. I hope we'll get a confirmation..

Clarify, this is in Ohio not PA?

Oops, sorry about that. Yes, I was talking about Ohio. PA has had two solved cases added so far today.

Do you know about the 2nd one? I know one was solved in Somerset County.

The page for Somerset County JD is still up at the moment. The profiles removed in PA were UP93857 and UP93741. There is a thread on WS for UP93857 but not for the other UID.

I wondered if it turned out the skull was much more recent? Perhaps the person who found it lied about it being found in the 70s.
