FORENSICS: The San Pablo Skull

On the 6th May, 2006, a 45-year-old woman disappeared from California’s San Pablo. Two years later, her skull was discovered 6 kilometers away. Forensic anthropologist Ryburn Dobbs uncovered evidence that could have cracked the case wide open. But the police ignored him. Why? In this episode, Ryburn tells host Kathryn Fox about the frustration of dealing with authorities who prioritise certain victims over others, even when presented with compelling forensic evidence.
