Thrilled to share that Othram, as part of an ongoing collaboration with the Oregon State Medical Examiner's Office, helped identify Illya “Ella” Wilkins, born July 30, 1887.

After 42 years, Clackamas County Doe (1981) is identified.

It's a good feeling, scrolling through the many cases that have been solved, and reading a bit about each person's story and how they have their names back. Often there is a nice photo taken when they were enjoying life. Gosh, there are just so many people who were lost. I dream that someday there will be no more John and Jane Does, but everyone will be identified.

Just read up on this one. The cases where people are so certain a MP is a John/Jane Doe but they just cant identify them are always heartbreaking. Well done!

There IS a thread about remains found in Golden Valley in 2021, but there seems to be a date discrepancy, those were found in October, not January. Brian is mentioned in the thread as one of three potential missing people who may line up with those remains. The NamUs numbers are different, too, so I don't think it's the same Doe.

Honored to share that Othram assisted the Horry County Police Department in unraveling a conspiracy and in identifying the persons responsible for the 2018 murders of Robert and Robbie Ford. An amazing example of how genomics can and will change the criminal justice system, just in time for DNA Day.
