Unidentified remains map sees great success in first week
NANAIMO — Morbid curiosity has led to quick success for a new initiative from the BC Coroners Service.
The interactive map of unidentified remains found in recent decades throughout the province garnered significant interest since opening to the public last week.
“We saw an increase in traffic of over 50 times what we saw the previous day,” Andy Watson with the service told NanaimoNewsNOW. “I know it’s generated a lot of interest and calls coming in to both BC Coroners Service and the RCMP.”
