\u201cFollowing the discovery of bones, the search was paused, to allow an anthropologist and pathologist from Adelaide to assist at the scene,\u201d Major Crime Investigation Branch Acting Detective Superintendent Andrew Macrae said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can now confirm the bones are human remains … I\u2019m very confident we have found the remains of Susan Goodwin.\u201d<\/p>\n
