Teen Girl’s Remains Found in Freezer
Human remains found earlier this year in Colorado have been identified.
In January, the Mesa County Sheriff’s Office was called after new homeowners held a garage sale to get rid of belongings left behind by the previous owners and made a suspicious discovery.
“Upon arrival,” the sheriff’s department said in an Oct. 11 statement, “deputies found the head and hands of a human had been discovered in a freezer by someone who arrived to claim the free appliance offered by the new owner of the recently sold home.”
Through DNA testing, the Coroner’s Office was able to identify the victim as Amanda Leariel Overstreet, the biological daughter of the previous owner of the home, according to the sheriff’s department.
“Amanda is believed to have been approximately 16 years old at the time of her disappearance,” authorities states. “Overstreet has not been seen or heard from since April 2005.”
However, the department noted the teen was never reported missing.
