Advocates for Indigenous people with missing family members are calling for action.
Murdered and Missing Indigenous People chapters in Oklahoma are asking families to submit DNA to help identify remains.
Jolene Beard's family has searched for any sign of her for two years. Jolene's sister's DNA is in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NAMUS) with the hope it can make a connection if remains are positively identified.
“’Do we want to hear that her remains have been found? Yes and no,’” Jolene's sister, Donna Crosslin, said. “It’s bittersweet.”
