Circumstances of Recovery: Hunters stumbled upon skeletal remains about 20 feet off a road in a wooded, uninhabited area between Bethany and Honesdale. Early reports stated that the remains had been stuffed into two plastic bags. Some reported that they were hidden in thick underbrush, another stated that they were found in a bunch of rhododendrons. State police interviewed a neighbor who resided less than a mile from where she was found. The neighbor told them earlier that year she saw a red pickup truck with New York tags parked near the discovery site.
