A San Bernardino, California cold case is one step closer to being solved after police announced this week that DNA testing and genealogical sleuthing helped them identified the victim after 30 years.
For 30 years, a partial skull found by a hunter in San Bernardino, California, was a grim clue in a cold case. But police announced this week that they have solved part of the mystery, through DNA testing and genealogical sleuthing.
The sheriff’s office says they have identified the victim as Derrick Burton, who was 4 years old when his mother, Patricia Clark, reported him missing. It’s not clear how he died, but police found a plastic bag that smelled of decomposition and contained children’s clothing when the skull was found.
