Identified! WA - Kittitas Co., Female remains near golf course, Sep'10 - Kerry May Hardy

http://www.king5.com/home/human-remains-Suncadia-Resort-golf-course-102371819.html

A backhoe operator uncovered the remains Monday morning buried on Suncadia Resort property.

The Kittitas County Sheriff's Office says the remains appear to be of a female. She was buried 18-to-24 inches below the surface

Thank you.

I just checked the missing persons list for Washington State, and there's over 2000...so I need to narrow it down a bit.

Susan Powell sprung immediately to mind, because Cle Elum is a town you'd drive through between Puyallup and Salt Lake City -- although much closer to Puyallup. But for those who think the body could have been hidden by a famly member (after a transfer), this find may seem interesting.

Nothing new on the news yet, although they've added images showing two tents. Looks like an archaeology dig.
 
Special Thanks to Laytonian for bringing this to WS.
 
According to the Washington State missing persons list, there are only two female missing persons cases being investigated by Kittikas County (the county Cle Elum is located in):

Teresa Marie Walcom, 16, missing since Aug 14th, 2010.

Jessica Dawn Barrett (Marie), 17, missing since May 15, 2010.

The remains found are being described as skeletal, according to this report in the Ellensburg, WA newspaper.
 
Could they be basing the female id on there being a bra found? One scary thought is did LB wear one?
 
Investigators say it will take days before they finish up their work at the crime scene. They'll also be looking for more evidence and trying to determine whether they should start looking for more bodies.

Suncadia is a sprawling 6,400-acre property filled with golf courses, spas and more than 400 homes.

Prominent cases of women missing from the area, Shantina Smiley, Rachael Anderson, Nancy Moyer and Susan Powell.
 
Do you guys ever stop and think how often remains are found just by a fluke -- i.e. by a hunter who just happens to be in some remote woods, by a bulldozer working on something, in a yard where a pool is being dug, by a dog that brings home a bone, by a fisherman, etc..............

a fluke?
There are far to many examples, for it to be a fluke.
For there are many that want to come home.
And sometimes, we are there only way.

To fish here, hunt this way, dig here, swim here.

The young couple, experience car trouble after a long journey.
the man gets out and inspects the engine.
The woman gets out and leans against the guard rail for some fresh air.
As she glances below, she sees the little girl that has been missing for the past ten years, laying in the same spot for all those years.
The little girl, just wanted a ride home!

I mention the above, to always remind people, that when you go out on searches, remember the one your looking for, is not necessarily the one your going to find.
For there are others, who want to come home to.
 
only about 2 hours away from where shantina smiley went missing from.
 
No indication how long the body had been there?

And some children who may be thought to be "adults" if they're just going by the clothing at this point... And based just on one media report we can't be sure if the remains are skeletal or not (IMO).

It's true, I think -- some souls are begging for us to find them, and that's what drives us to keep searching.....I am humbled and sobered by the list of missing -- and wonder -- how can so many never be found?? As I said, it is humbling. And, p.s., I, too, loathe the statement, "there was no indication of foul play," when a body is found buried in a place it shouldn't be buried -- under uknown circumstances -- etc.
 
According to the Washington State missing persons list, there are only two female missing persons cases being investigated by Kittikas County (the county Cle Elum is located in):

Teresa Marie Walcom, 16, missing since Aug 14th, 2010.

Jessica Dawn Barrett (Marie), 17, missing since May 15, 2010.

The remains found are being described as skeletal, according to this report in the Ellensburg, WA newspaper.

There's NOTHING more frustrating than to find the above names of missing people from that county AND THEN read that there are NO missing cases from that county.

See here: Daily Records News.

And yes, this story confirms that the remains are skeletal -- which buried remains would be, quite soon after burial.

At least the recovery is complete.
