The Rock County Sheriff’s Office may have finally solved the mystery of who’s skeletal remains were found in a wooded area along Turtle Creek back in 1995. The sheriff’s office has repeatedly reviewed the case and often used new technology in the hopes of identifying the deceased. In 2018, the sheriff’s office contacted the DNA Doe Project for assistance and crucial leads discovered through that process led them to the University of North Texas; Center for Human Identification for assistance. In May of this year, additional samples were sent to the University of North Texas and officials now say DNA testing results are available. The sheriff’s office intends to release the findings during a news conference scheduled for Tuesday afternoon.
