Search resumes for missing Charlotte woman after weather delays
</p> News Today, the Sheriff’s Office Cold Case Unit returned to the woods off of Fairway Drive along with FGCU Forensic Anthropologists. Wednesday, January 30th 2019, 5:51 PM EST by Claire Lavezzorio CHARLOTTE COUNTY, Fla. – The Search is back on to find a Charlotte County woman at the center of a 24-year cold case. Because of weather, crews have had to call off the Search for Christine Flahive, who went missing in 1995. “We can still be looking several weeks down the road before this is a complete mission,” Detective Mike Gandy with the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office said. Today, the Sheriff’s Office Cold Case Unit returned to the woods off of Fairway Drive along with FGCU Forensic Anthropologists. They are testing soil on site and have expertise when it comes to evaluating human remains in tropical conditions. “In colder climates, you don’t really need the forensic anthropologists as much because that cold climate is going to work to preserve the soft tissue,” FGCU Forensic Anthropologist Heather Walsh-Haney said. Peace River K9 Search and Rescue volunteers are also sniffing through any digs. Gandy said the Unit had found some items of interest that will need to be tested off-site. “If we do it at a private lab, that is a charge. And that comes out of the Sheriff’s budget.” County taxpayers fund that budget. He said private labs could cost anywhere between $500 and $1,200 per sample unless they’re tested by FDLE or the FBI, which doesn’t come out of the Sheriff’s Office budget. Crews are still optimistic in finding Flahive’s remains. “If I didn’t think that human remains associated with a 25-year-old cold case could be discovered, I wouldn’t be here,” Walsh-Haney said. The plan is to still return to the site off of Education Avenue once investigators complete the work at this site. © Copyright 2019 WBBH/WZVN (Waterman Broadcasting). All rights reserved.
