The remains of an unidentified woman found nearly three decades ago wrapped in a plastic cover and dumped in a shallow grave in a California desert town has been identified as a New York native.
Coroner officials declared the cause of death as “homicidal violence,” but how she died is still unknown, said DA Supervising Investigator Ryan Bodmer. Cavallaro’s husband, who died in 2017, told investigators that his wife vanished after leaving their home. The report also estimated the remains to have been in the shallow grave for one to four months before it was discovered. Bodmer said the body was so decomposed that coroners could not determine the manner of death.
Using genetic matches from GEDmatch and their potential family tree, investigators were able to locate Cavallaro’s biological son, who then provided his DNA sample to the state Missing and Unidentified Persons System.
