Franklin Police have no plans of returning to the Avalon subdivision today, where a comprehensive search operation concluded last night. Our investigation has shifted to an intensive review of evidence. In this next phase, we will employ forensic science in our effort to determine who this person is, and what happened to them; they have a story to tell, and it is our job to tell it – to be their voice.

“Our search and investigation, yesterday, was comprehensive and reverent,” said Chief Deborah Faulkner. “For a while, that brush was someone’s grave – and shouldn’t have been. This was someone’s loved one, and it is our job to find out whose, and what happened to them.”

Anyone with information about this case is urged to contact Franklin Police at 794-2513.
