B.C. RCMP release more details about cold case skull reconstructions

Police are hoping a sculpture workshop at the New York Academy of Art will help solve the mysteries of 14 unidentified remains found in British Columbia dating back decades.

In September 1972, Mounties received a report of the body of a man on a sandbar in the Fraser River near McSween Road. Though there was no evidence of criminality, the identity of the remains has never been determined and the case went cold. “Chilliwack RCMP are reaching out to the public for assistance identifying the person depicted in the image,” said Upper Fraser Valley RCMP spokesman Cpl. Mike Rail.

Students at the academy reconstructed 15 faces directly onto 3D printed replicas of the actual skulls as part of a forensic sculpture workshop.
