‘Suspicious’ human remains found in garbage bag​




The remains were discovered by a construction crew around the area of 2600 West Highway 13, according to the Brigham City Police Department. The contents were initially believed to be trash, but “hair and bones” were later discovered, police said.

“They’re definitely human remains,” Brigham City Police Chief Chad Reyes told ABC4.com. “It appears that they’ve been here for some time, but I would say sometime less than, at least, a couple years.”

Authorities are hoping that a distinctive heart-shaped tattoo will lead to the identification of human remains discovered in a black plastic bag by railroad workers in Brigham City.

According to investigators, a forensic examination conducted on Thursday revealed the victim was dressed in women's clothing, including a black hooded sweatshirt and leggings. During the examination, a distinctive heart-shaped tattoo was discovered on the victim's left bicep.

Brigham City police reveal tattoo on human remains after autopsy fails to identify body​




According to the Brigham City Police Department, the autopsy results could not identify the person’s age, race, ethnicity, or gender as the remains were in “a heavy state” of decomposition. The only identifying feature available is that the person had long reddish-brown hair pulled back with a hair tie.

Is this the same case? The sex, date, city, long hair and black sweatshirt match. The tattoos and garbage bags are not mentioned on NamUs.

I'd like to know more about the black metal ring found with her, and particularly whether it was a piece of jewellery or some sort of fitting belonging to her clothing or suchlike. On cruise ships, it appears that black rings can be a sign of belonging to the swinging community, at least when worn on the left hand.
