Officer John felt completely out of his depth when he saw the remains stashed in the hollow tree. Ready to inform his chief police officer so that they could send more reinforcements out, he began to dial. But just before he could get hold of the station, someone stopped him.

The forensic experts he’d brought with stopped him before he could place the call. And it was a good thing they did. They unpacked their tools and began to analyze the skeleton to try to place its origin.

Investigation

Usually, forensic investigators need at least a week to conclusively determine whose remains had been found and where or what they had originated from.

They had stopped John from making the call because what they had discovered meant that further investigation wouldn’t be necessary in this case. They already had everything they needed.
