Discovered for the third time in a year, human remains uncovered by a Jefferson County resident's dogs.
In a shocking turn of events, a Jefferson County woman named Paulina Mejia has found human remains for the third time in a year. The latest discovery was made on Dec. 12, when Mejia's dogs brought home a human tibia.
The initial bone was found in Mejia's front yard, with deputies also locating a long bone that was dragged by one of her dogs. This is the fourth time Mejia's dogs have found human remains, according to her statement.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office responded to a report of possible human remains at Fifth Place Northwest, where authorities later found a human bone in Mejia's home. The discovery of the human bone marks the third such incident in a year.
Approximately a year ago, a skull was found at Mejia's residence in the same manner. The coroner's office performed an autopsy on the skull, which revealed the person had been shot.
In an interview, Mejia expressed her concerns about the discoveries, stating that it's "really shocking" given the peaceful nature of the community. After the most recent bone was discovered, authorities recovered more remains in a nearby wooded area.
Interestingly, there are no available search results reporting that a Jefferson County woman's dogs have repeatedly discovered human remains in the Center Point area in the past year. If this event did happen, it has not been documented in the indexed sources from the past year.
Further investigation is underway, with extra testing to be done to determine whether the remains found in the wooded area are from the original victim. The analysis of the skull's DNA did not match anyone in the national database, leaving the identity of the victim unknown at this time.
This incident was reported by Riley Conlon. As the investigation continues, the community waits to learn more about the identity of the victim and the circumstances surrounding the discoveries.
- In light of these startling discoveries, politics and general news surrounding war-and-conflicts may shift towards the crime-and-justice sector, as authorities continue their investigation into the identity of the victim and the circumstances surrounding the human remains found by a Jefferson County woman's dogs.
- As the investigation into this unusual series of events progresses, questions about accountability and resolution in regards to war-and-conflicts, politics, and crime-and-justice may arise, as human remains keep surfacing in Jefferson County, leaving the community in a state of uncertainty.
