Print | E-mail | Comment (No comments posted.) | Rate | Text Size Possible break in Hernando cold case By staff reports Published: Friday, November 6, 2009 9:52 PM CST HERNANDO — Forensic experts will examine human remains discovered in Arkansas in 2001 to determine if they could be those of a Hernando teenager who went missing almost 32 years ago. Commander Fred Perez with the DeSoto County Sheriff’s Department said the family of Jerry Lee Armstrong recently gave DNA samples to authorities to see if the remains might be a match to Armstrong, who disappeared following a Christmas dance at the Hernando National Guard Armory on Dec. 23, 1977. Armstrong was 18 at the time he disappeared. “They (Arkansas authorities) have found some remains, and their investigation has concluded these are the remains of a black male between 16 and 19 years old who was found in Poinsett County in 2001,” Perez said Friday. “At the time there were no reported missing persons in Poinsett County.” Poinsett County is about 80 miles from Hernando. Perez said that fishermen discovered the remains in a ditch near the St. Francis River in 2001. The remains were found several feet from the water’s edge. “Apparently the water level had gone down and exposed the remains,” Perez said. Arkansas authorities contacted Perez after seeing Armstrong’s information in a missing persons database. Perez said Armstrong’s information was recently entered for the first time into the National Center for Missing Adults. “Jerry Lee Armstrong’s information, for whatever reason, was never entered into the national database,” he said. “Even if this proves not to be Jerry Lee Armstrong, it (DNA) can be compared to other remains.” Because Armstrong’s disappearance is believed by authorities to be linked to a hate crime, the case has received fresh attention from local and state authorities. The FBI, Mississippi Bureau of Investigation and other agencies have been investigating the Armstrong case on an on-again, off-again basis for the past several years. Anyone with information about the case is urged to contact the DeSoto County Sheriff’s Department at 662-429-1470. http://www.desototimes.com/articles/2009/1...12306732109.txt |
