Brenda Clark was 38 years old in Knox County, Tennessee in 1996. Her remains were recently identified from DNA samples collected from her and family members.
Now, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) has launched an investigation to learn how Clark was murdered, and more importantly, who killed her.
The slaying has been an unsolved case for decades, but investigators have finally been able to identity the victim, whose remains were found in the woods by hunters in 1996.
For decades, forensics experts were unable to identify the remains, which led investigators to officially label her as a Jane Done. But in 2018, her DNA was entered into a DNA database and a match was made.
According to the Knoxville Sentinel, “In 2019, TBI agents were notified of a possible match with a woman living in Knoxville, the release stated. After contacting with the woman, agents learned she had a missing twin sister.”
The TBI is now in need of the public’s help: If anyone knows anything about this slaying, please call 1-800-TBI-FIND.
