23 - The West Mesa Bone Collector

On February 2nd 2009 Christine Ross was walking her dog along the Arroyo Bank on Albuquerque's West Mesa , when she came across a bone sticking out of the ground.

Ross suspected that the bone didn’t look like it came from an animal. She took a picture of the bone and sent it over to her sister who is a nurse. Her sister replied and much to Ross’ horror her suspicions were confirmed, it was human.

Upon investigation, Albuquerque police discovered that between 2001 and 2005 11 women had been buried on the West Mesa by an unknown killer. Police utilised technology and did satellite scans of the area which showed tyre tracks and plots of disturbed soil where the women had been buried.
