Remains identified 31 years later as Okla. woman
PAWPAW, Mich. (AP) — State police say human remains discovered by a Michigan hunter 31 years ago have been identified as an Oklahoma woman.
First Lieutenant Chuck Christensen tells WOOD-TV that the identity was made by comparing a femur bone with a public genealogy database and interviewing family members. Marcia Bateman of Oklahoma City was 28 years old when she disappeared in 1988. Christensen says Bateman’s death remains under investigation. He says she was “living on the street a little and somewhat transient.”
Remains were found off Interstate 196 in Van Buren County, 200 miles from Detroit.
