42 years had passed, and Florence Flora Stevens was forgotten, or was she? She was never declared dead, she was never declared as living either. Her mystery had remained unaltered. But suddenly in 2017, strings were going to reconnect.
Yan Salomon
Salmon, a senior investigator with the New York State Police called up the detective bureau in Sullivan County in the Catskills. Why? Had he found out Florence? Or did he have at least some idea about where she could be?
September 15
When Salomon called the sheriff on the morning of September 15th in 2017, he told him that he had found a female skeleton one county over Catskills but was unable to make out whose body it was. Could it be Florence’s?
Reports
To find out whose skeleton it was, Salomon was going through the cases of missing people in the near regions but it would’ve been impossible to find out the truth this way because nearly 70,000 women go missing in the United States each year.
Possibility
Out of the 70,000 women that go missing on an average, many even return or are found. But during the time when Salomon found the skeleton, there were still 21,894 active cases. What was the possibility of it being Florence out of them all?
Connection
The Sullivan sheriff opened up Florence’s case and revived it. But the question was, how would they prove if it was even Florence or not because Florence had no alive relatives in 2017 on whom a DNA test could be performed.
