Assemblyman Otis Announces Passage of Bill to Improve Identification of Unknown Dead and Missing Persons
Assemblyman Otis stated, “By requiring all medical examiners in New York to report identifying information on unidentified remains to NamUs, the bill will increase the probability that human remains can be identified. This will not only assist law enforcement agencies in solving crimes, but most importantly, help to bring closure to families who are coping with the tragic disappearance of a loved one.”
