This is so strange. They don't know how the remains were found? How could that happen?

Presumably they found the case file and /or remains in storage--maybe filed with another case, pushed into a corner, something like that?

I wonder if newspapers could provide a bit more detail - I'd hope they at least checked.

Looking for things happening in Seattle on that date. I haven't found anything so far, but this article about violence against Filipino Americans fighting corrupt cannery union is interesting. They were murdered on April 27 1981.
