-Caveat Lector- (When I awoke this morning with the thought that Chandra Levey was almost certainly dead, I did not think much of it, until I turned on the television and saw the breaking news that a body had been found at Rock Creek Park in Washington. --SW)
Skeletal Remains in D.C. Park May Be Missing Intern Levy Wed May 22, 2:28 PM ET By Alexander Ferguson WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Police said on Wednesday they were investigating whether skeletal remains and clothing found in Washington's Rock Creek Park were those of missing intern Chandra Levy, who had a close relationship with a member of Congress before she disappeared last year. Police said the remains were found in a heavily wooded area by someone walking their dog, sparking off speculation that they belonged to Levy, who was known to jog in the park before she was last heard from on May 1, 2001. "We're certainly looking into the possibility of the Chandra Levy disappearance, but we don't know right now whether or not the remains are in fact Chandra Levy's," Washington Metropolitan Police Chief Charles Ramsey told reporters at the scene. Thousands of people disappear in the United States every year but Levy's case drew national attention for her relationship with California Rep. Gary Condit, who has never divulged publicly how close their relationship had been. Condit, who police have said is not a suspect in Levy's disappearance, lost a Democratic primary earlier this year, in part because of the negative publicity from the scandal. Noting the remains and pieces of clothing were scattered over an area in the park, which was repeatedly searched last year, Ramsey said it was not immediately clear if it was a child, a man or a woman. "It will take a forensic pathologist to really be able determine at this point. Apparently the remains have been there for a while," Ramsey said, who was accompanied to the wooded site by senior officers. Ramsey said he did not know when police would be able to identify the remains. "We do have dental records on file in the Levy case," he said. PARENTS INFORMED Levy's parents, who live in Modesto, California, have said they still held out the slim hope that their now 25-year-old daughter might be alive. "I've spoken with the Levy family just to make them aware of what we have because I didn't want them finding out on television," Ramsey said. "We'll be in touch to let them know what's going on as it develops." Levy was last seen working out at her gym on April 30, 2001, and police believe she spent much of the morning of May 1 surfing the Internet and shopping for an air ticket home to California to receive a graduate degree. When police searched her apartment, they found her wallet, computer and luggage packed at the door. Only her keys were missing. The U.S. Attorney's office is working on the case and the Levys hired top Washington criminal lawyer Billy Martin and his team of investigators to find their daughter. In addition, a grand jury has been meeting in secret over Levy's disappearance, trying to decide whether anyone should be charged in the case. Some have speculated that Levy was the victim of a serial killing in the city's Dupont Circle area. Two other women have gone missing over the past few years in the area and the badly decomposed body of one of them was found over a year after she disappeared. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ KALX FM, Berkeley http://kalx.berkeley.edu/kalx.ram ANOMALOUS IMAGES AND UFO FILES http://www.anomalous-images.com <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
