This human skull, designated John Doe #26-07, has been in the possession of Dr. Judy Suchey, the former Coroner Department forensic anthropologist, since the 1970s or 1980s. Only recently has she determined that the skull may be of forensic interest. She reported that the skull was probably of forensic interest on July 24, 2007. The skull is missing facial bones, including maxilla and mandible, and is that of a male adult, most likely White or Hispanic (not Black or Native American), and was probably buried at some point. There is a bullet hole to the top of the skull and a large defect at the base. No STR or mtDNA profile could be developed by CA DOJ-DNA/CODIS reference #BK-07-000722). Identity may only be confirmed by head X-rays.
Date Found: 2007-07-24
