SWEET HOME, Ore. (AP) - Human remains that were found near Sweet Home are that of a woman with short brown hair, authorities said.
Linn County Undersheriff Paul Timm said Wednesday that detectives and the Oregon State Medical Examiner’s Office have been investigating since his office got a call Friday about remains found on a US Forest Service road about 13 miles east of Sweet Home.
