Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office detectives said they have finally identified the bodies of two murder victims who were reported missing more than 40 years ago.
Investigators were able to identify Alice Lou Williams, who was reported missing in 1981, and a man named Blaine Has Tricks whose remains were discovered in the Marysville landfill in 1977 by a bulldozer operator.Williams, whose partial remains were discovered by U.S. Forest Service surveyors in a steep forested ravine north of Skykomish in October 2009, was just identified this past week.
“We are here today to discuss and announce a break in two homicide cold cases,” Snohomish County Sheriff Adam Fortney said during a media briefing on Thursday. “I planned on retiring June 30 of 2019 and in 2018 when I realized what a great tool this was, I knew more cases could be solved,” Detective Jim Scharf with the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office said.
“Any day, it’s like the lottery. Somebody else could upload their DNA and we could get a brother that we matched,” Scharf said.
