Navigating the Complexities of the Investigation

Awaiting Definitive Identification

As the investigation continues, the Nueces County Medical Examiner's Office has confirmed that the discovered remains "bore no obvious signs of homicide" and were "unable to make an identification, nor provide a manner or cause of death." The remains have been sent to the University of North Texas Center for Human Identification for further DNA analysis, a process that could take several weeks according to city officials."As of July 3, TV station WOAI reported that, according to city officials, identification of the remains found last month could require weeks," the article notes.
