Skeletons found in UW closet

The P-I reports today that human remains were dug up in the archives of the Anthropology Department at the University of Washington. (# ^[1]) Okay, not literally dug up, but eight sets of human remains were located that are believed to have been sent to a late professor who retired in 1991. In addition, the skull requested by the Yakima police that caused the search still hasn’t been located. Sounds like a mystery straight out of a TV crime drama…

Edited to add: The P-I just published a list of the various remains, for the curious. (# ^[2])
