Teen Girl’s Dismembered Remains Found In Freezer Left Behind By Home’s Previous Owner
Huff PostPeople at a recently sold Colorado house made a gruesome discovery when they opened a discarded freezer left behind by the previous residents. After the new owner attempted to offload the appliance for free on Jan. 12, a person who stopped by the house to claim it found a head and hands inside, the Mesa County Sheriff’s Office said on Friday. Nine months later, authorities say they’ve identified the remains as those of a teenage girl whose family previously lived at the Grand Junction house — and a criminal investigation is ongoing. DNA testing confirmed the remains belonged to Amanda Leariel Overstreet, who was approximately 16 years old when she was last seen in April 2005, the Mesa County Sheriff’s Office said. Wendy Likes, the public information officer for the Mesa County Sheriff’s Office, told HuffPost that the office did not perform the forensic testing.
