The human remains found in rural Benton County have been identified

BENTON COUNTY, WA - The Benton County Coroner’s Office and the Benton County Sheriff’s Office have been attempting to identify the remains found in April.

With the assistance of the Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office and the Washington State Anthropologist a positive identification has been made.

The next-of-kin have been notified, however, due to an ongoing investigation by the Benton County Sheriff’s Office, the name is not being released.
 
Investigators ID body found in a remote Benton County field. But was it murder?


Jun. 4—KENNEWICK, Wa. — Investigators have identified the person found dead in a field in late April.

While they know who the person was, they aren't releasing who it is yet while the investigation continues, according to Benton County Coroner Bill Leach and the Benton County Sheriff's Office.

Officials are concerned potential suspects in the death may flee if more information is released.

The person's family has been notified but officials are not releasing the adult's gender or age.
 
I would add Andrea Nuckles out of Sunnyside WA missing since January 27, 2021, but her family just had an article on June 16 asking for more help in finding her.

Since the article above says the family has been notified if it was Andrea I doubt they would do that article asking for help now - unless LE asked them to do that to help their case?

Hmm I guess I'll add her here, just in case:

WA - WA - Andrea Nuckles, 59, & Chihuahua, Sunnyside, 27 Jan 2021

As LE is worried that potential suspects might flee if more information is released, I wonder if our (now identified) UID could have been part of a migrant community? S/he was found in a field, would Benton County, WA be a place that would attract migrant workers?
 
This is my aunt that was found. Jackie Pagel from Spokane WA. There is no leads on who could of done this. Corner said she died from blunt force trauma.
So sorry for your loss.
There is a thread for Jackie here.
