About this episode

A re-release of our series on the Twiggs County John Doe, in hopes of bringing in new tips: 


After an army diesel-truck crashes on the way to Macon, GA, spilling diesel fuel across the highway and into a nearby creek, emergency workers discover skeletal remains in a drainage ditch—and set off a nearly two-decade investigation. Biological anthropologist Dr. Amy Michael returns to offer her expertise in forensic anthropology on the case.
