Fleming County Officials Say Remains Of Two People Found Near Where Human Skull Discovered
WLEX-TV
updated 50 minutes ago
Authorities in Fleming County now say that they have discovered the remains of two people in an area where a human skull was discovered last week.
On Wednesday, Kentucky State Police said that during a subsequent search of the area, additional skeletal remains were discovered and submitted for analysis. Preliminary findings indicate the remains are of two individuals, one of whom is taller than the other.
The recovered skull is believed to be that of an Anglo or Hispanic male, whose age is between 18-30 years of age.
Other information gathered suggests the skeletal remains were not of an approved burial location and may have been in the area from six to 24 months.
Anyone having information in this investigation is encouraged to contact the Kentucky State Police Post 8 at 606-784-4127. The case remains under investigation.
Below is what I posted on a couple of forums earlier this mourning and later tonight. Seems a human skull washed up into a culvert near one of my farms. So now we have another mystery death on our hands. There is an update below the "Original" post.
ORIGINAL POST:
The below story is about a human skull found less than a mile from one of my farms. Many have heard me mention that from time to time a body or parts there of pop up here in KY and I have been told that "no longer happens", well guess what!!!! Funny thing is the first thing everyone will say is an old cemetary BUT none in that area except the one beside my farm. Delaney runs almost parrallel to the road my farm on with a strip of land between 1/2 mile at closest point and 1/5 miles at teh widest. I have an idea where the skull was found and that is just under 1 mile from my farm as the crow flies. Anyone know os some one missing, might want to send dental records to the Fleming County Sheriffs office!!!!

State Police say a human skull was found Saturday afternoon in Fleming County.
Officials say it was found on Delaney Road. No other bones were recovered.
The skull was sent to Frankfort for an autopsy.
Now State Police are asking the public to contact them if they know anyone who has gone missing in the Fleming County area.

UPDATE:
Well today they had 6 cadaver dogs and handlers plus every KY state trooper, game warden, local LEOs, and area residents walking the area looking for the rest of the remains. According to the prelimnary findings, very prelimnary I might add, the skull has been dead for around 6 months, was seperated from the rest of the spine naturally (not severed by say a knife or whatever) so they figure the rest of the remains are close in the area, and they are speculating it "could" be a mexican as to race but that is pure speculation being no missing person reports at all. We have a lot of mexican migrants that come around during tobacco growing season with many (most) not being legal or documented so they come and go with little notice or warning. Also there are at least 3 (and to be honest up to 10) unsolved murders in that area, the Fleming, Nicholas (my home county but I have a farm in Fleming and one in Nicholas) and Robertson County "triangle" which have ties to drugs as the most probable connection to each murder/possible murder. Now reason I say at least 3, there are several more listed as suicide and/or accidents that no one believe for a second that as the actual cause knowing who they were as well as their lifestyle/friends/aquantices. So the saga continues and with tonights heavy rains, there could be more remains washed down IF the rest of the remains have not already done so, on down through the culvert where the skull was found in, to the larger streams. The wooded area is right beside a very rural road, one that has only 4 residents on it's entire length of 2 miles, with the forest floor having a very heavy layer of leaves on it plus it is steep ground as well. As I stated, the last I heard was around 5PM and they were actively searching then with dogs and pepole with plans to search till dark. Will update as I learn more.

I'm guessing the cause of death will be something like "separation from the rest of the body"
Could have saved them the postage on that one.
[:D]
Be careful. That revealed your county and your state, if you were here yesterday, you know where that can lead.
So true...
Quit while you're a head.
It might be an old family cemetary, most of those are not recorded, but existed in modern times, up to early 1960's
They claim that the skull is from a person that has been dead . . . for about 6 months . . . so what pray tell is anyone doing placing the head or any body parts deceased for six months, into a private/family cemetary from the early 60s or older??? (Perhaps you did not note how long dead in the original posters info???) [:(] [?] [:(]
if no one claims it, do you get to keep it?
LOL... seriously funny stuff[:D]
Good luck, while we're all poking fun, I wouldn't want to be getting the questions that you are!
I kind of lost my head in a meeting last year. Mine had 2 eye holes and a place for a nose and mouth with one crown on the top set of teeth. Any chance that was it?
Were you wearing a hat?
heff is researching this with the rangers,even as we speak.
^
This! I laughed out loud![:D]
As to them knowing where I am, SO!
Human skull found near one of my farms...
I wondered where my head fell off.[}:)]
Terrible news Duce. When will these senceless suicides stop? I wish I could help. Ammo perhaps!
Barbwire and ammo is selling quick here in the county cbxjeff. Maybe send more Mexicans would help out ?
