Nearly two dozen families have already come forward to provide DNA samples in the hopes that they can connect their missing loved ones to the bodies found on the Baumeister property over 26 years ago.
HAMILTON COUNTY — The new efforts to connect remains that have been sitting at the University of Indianapolis for over 26 years are already helping to bring closure to the family of at least one of Herbert Baumeister's alleged victims.
"A local funeral home has stepped up and is willing to provide cremation for those remains," Jellison said."The cemetery where this individual already had a headstone... said, hey, we want to help the family."Nearly 10,000 bones and bone fragments were located on the Baumeister property in the 1990s. A majority of them have never been identified or linked to any missing person.
"Some are convinced that their next of kin or their loved one was involved in the Fox Hollow incident," Jellison said."Some are just saying, 'Hey, we don't know. And we just know that we've got a missing male individual for the middle 80s to middle 90s. Can you help?' Certainly we will. We'll take those DNA swabs. We'll turn those over to the State Police. You don't know where that may end up at. They may not be part of this Fox Hollow investigation...
Members of the Hamilton County Coroner's Office re-visited the former Baumeister property over the weekend along with nearly a dozen dogs from the Indiana Canine Search and Recovery. During their search, crews were able to identify and mark 20 different locations where remains may be. None of the marked locations were dug on Sunday, Jellison said they will meet with their forensic partners and law enforcement partners to determine their next steps.
