Detectives with the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office have successfully identified human remains found as those of a teen missing from Broward County for nearly a half century.
PBSO said the remains were found the morning of June 16, 1974, in a swampy area of Singer Island, located in North Palm Beach. The investigation at the time determined the remains were those of a female between 15 and 20 years of age. "She was skeletal remains, nothing left of her but the bones," said PBSO Det. Bill Springer during a Thursday news conference."Detectives did their job, but they didn't have any of this new technology."
DNA was entered into the National Data Base for unidentified persons and genealogy was performed in November 2021.
