from Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan · host CrimeOnline and iHeartPodcasts

In February 1998 the dismembered remains of an elderly man were found in Tuscarawas County, Ohio. The remains were in two suitcases found days apart and investigators determined all of the remains belonged to the same individual. The hands and head were not in either suitcase, preventing identification of the remains. The case went cold. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack take a look at what happened over 30 years and how Othram was able to identify the remains and in the process, identify the person who put the remains in the suitcases.  Host: Joseph Scott MorganCo-Host: Dave Mack         Transcribe Highlights00:00.29 Introduction - Retirement 05:11.00 Dismembered remains found  10:35.78 Remains were "fresh" 15:16.46 Coroner would have been alerted 20:11.67 Body Bag becomes evidence  25:22.09 Forensic anthropology 30:07.00 Victim was in his 90s 36:22.81 DNA - Othram, identified remains 39:58.10 Son Collected Dad social security and pension 45:55.32 ConclusionSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
