The victim's skeletal remains were discovered by children playing in an abandoned building on a vacant lot between 21470 and 21630 Baptist Encampment Road.
Montgomery County Sheriff's Office deputies found that the remains were located on top of the ground just inside the doorway. The area was flood prone.
In 2009, MCSO Cold Case Detectives submitted the remains for DNA testing, Anthropological Analysis, and submission to the Missing Persons/Unidentified DNA database. The skull in this case appears to contain evidence of having been associated with a previous autopsy. DNA could not be obtained.
Please note: all cases in which the gender of the victim is unknown are assigned and filed as male.
