DNA Solves Local Cold Case

The remains were discovered near Taholah but went unidentified for nearly 20 years.

The remains were discovered near Taholah but went unidentified for nearly 20 years. New DNA testing completed last year finally gave the Graya Harbor John Doe a name and brought long-awaited answers.
