It’s difficult to have a murder investigation without a body, and burning up the victim destroys physical evidence.

Dr. John Verano and Dr. Doug Owsley of the Smithsonian have faced these challenges, identifying the burned remains of two American journalists found in Guatemala seven years after their reported disappearance. It seems as though fire can unveil lies, as well as conceals truths.
