CCPD Chief Mike Markle: It could take up to six weeks to identify remains found in wastewater well

"At that time, we'll know whether we'll bring closure to existing cases or start a new case or even if there's any foul play involved," Chief Mike Markle said.

They have not said whether the remains were male or female. Usually they can initially tell at least that. I wonder why they are silent on it.

Noisy background but I appreciate the Chief's words regarding the discovery.

I imagine a gator got him shortly after he took his final photo of the bridge and drainage canal he was standing next to. He was pulled into the stormwater system that leads to the lift station.

Seriously!!!!! 6 DAMN WEEKS?????

Life isn't like police TV shows. DNA analysis takes weeks, and with the body being in waste water it'll take a while to get anything from it presumably. Plus we don't know if the head is attached or not, so they can't just look at it and match it with anyone.
