WASHINGTON (AP) - Business has been backing up at the offices of the nation's coroners and medical examiners.
A government report says they receive about 4,400 unidentified human remains on average annually but about 1,000 typically remain unidentified after a year.
Overall, there were more than 13,000 unidentified human remains on record at those offices as of 2004, the latest year for which there's data.
Cleveland had the coldest case, dating to 1900.
