Donated skulls in Washington state lead to more human remains

Two human skulls prepared for clinical use that were donated to a Bellevue, Washington thrift store, are pictured in this undated handout photo By Victoria Cavaliere SEATTLE (Reuters) - Authorities in Washington state were looking for a person who donated three human skulls to a thrift store last month, and said on Monday their pleas for information had instead prompted the handover of yet more human remains. The Seattle and King County Medical Examiner said they were hoping to speak with the person who left behind the three skulls at a Goodwill store in Bellevue in the hopes of learning the origin of the remains. One of the skulls was more than 100 years old and appears to be the fragile remains of a Native American child, said medical examiner spokesman Keith Seinfeld. "We have issued this plea for information, particularly in regard to the Native American child so we can return it to the tribe from which it came," he said.
