SOLVED! Shoe with Human Foot Found on Beach in 2008 IDENTIFIED

On August 5, 2008, a beach goer near the former Silver King Resort, west of Port Angeles, Washington, found a shoe containing a sock and what appeared to be human remains. It was not the first discovery of its kind—and would not be the last—but today, the person behind the foot has been identified. Since 2007, at least 20 detached human feet, often in sneakers, have washed ashore along the Salish Sea in British Columbia, Canada, and Washington state. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack examine the mystery and go behind the scenes at Othram to explain how forensic experts identified the remains—and how the public can help. Othram collaborates with forensic scientists, medical examiners, and law enforcement to solve cases when other methods have failed.
