Duchesne County Sheriff's Office looking for public help in identifying remains
The Duchesne County Sheriff’s Office is asking for help from the public in identifying the remains of a woman whose skull was found 21 years ago.
According to the sheriff’s office, deputies conducted a search warrant on a property in 2001 and located a human skull held on by wire on top of a fence post.
An anthropological analysis was done and it determined the remains belonged to a hispanic female between the ages of 17 and 25. Authorities estimate that the women went missing between 1981 and 2001.
There was a composite sketch done based on the skull. The sheriff’s office is asking for any information from anyone who might recognize the woman or know anything about her.
