LA Thread 'LA - Slidell, WhtMale 25-45, UP53947, Skull in wildlife refuge near Palm Lake, Nov'17'

Nov 13, 2017

The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office said that a hunter found the human skull in a wooded area in a wildlife refuge near the Palm Lake area in Slidell on Friday morning (Nov. 10). The Sheriff's Office didn't name the refuge, but the Big Branch Marsh National Wildlife Refuge is adjacent to Palm Lake.

Sheriff's investigators did not find any other skeletal remains, nor did they find any immediate signs to suggest foul play.

You might have heard of familial search (FS) and forensic genetic genealogy (FGG). Both methods use kinship relationships to generate investigative leads but differ significantly in scope and application. It's important not to confuse the methods!

Pardon my confusion but has Othram always worked on children's cases?

If I remember correctly, there was a genetic genealogy company that refused to work on such cases.

I believe that's the DNA Doe Project, specifically in cases involving probable parental murder. Plenty of others work kid's cases.

We work all violent crimes. It would be absurd to withhold the technology, especially in unsolved crimes against children!

It indeed would be absurd to withhold technology, any kind of technology, that would help solve unsolved crimes against children.

I couldn't agree more! I couldn't remember which forensic lab had those specific parameters in place. Thanks for confirming.

Love all the work you do!
