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

30 Mar 2025

Description

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.       Transcript Highlights 00:00.12 Introductin 01:57.78 A shoe with a human foot found on beach  06:48.11 Water meeting the sea, creating odd currents 12:09.99 How do feet wind up on the beach inside shoes 17:02.94 Geography of the area 23:51.44 Investigation starts very broad 28:31.49 Forensic anthropologist needed to ID remains 33:34.69 Why say "human remains" instead of "foot" 37:10.65 Othram Labs solving mysteries 43:12.33 ConclusionSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
