Genetic genealogy leads to identification of newborn found dead on Mississippi interstate in 1993
SUMMARY: In 1993, a newborn girl, later named “Mary Josephine,” was found dead on Mississippi’s Interstate 10, leading to a decades-long investigation. Recently, Harrison County Sheriff Matt Haley announced the child’s mother had been identified through advanced genetic genealogy techniques utilized by the Texas-based firm Othram. After exhuming Mary Josephine’s remains in 2023 for DNA testing, investigators traced the mother, who tragically died by suicide shortly before the inquiry. Her disclosure in a letter confirmed her role as the mother. This case marks the 31st resolution in Mississippi using Othram’s forensic technology.
