Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan: Human Foot Found on Beach in Shoe IDENTIFIED

On August 5, 2008, a beachgoer walking near the former Silver King Resort, west of Port Angeles, Washington, discovered a shoe containing a sock and what appeared to be human remains. It wasn't the first and won't be the last, but today, the person behind the foot is identified! Since 2007, at least 20 detached human feet, often found in sneakers, have been discovered on the coasts of the Salish Sea in British Columbia, Canada, and Washington, US. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack take a look at the mystery as well as go behind the lab coats at Orthram to explain how they are able to identify the person behind the foot, and how you can help. Othram works with forensic scientists, medical examiners, and law enforcement agencies to achieve results when other approaches failed.
