Investigators have found human remains inside the car of a woman who disappeared in Arkansas 23 years ago with her child.
Adventures With Purpose, a charity that works to solve cold cases around the nation, found Samantha Jean Hopper’s car in eight feet of water on Tuesday, according to a statement from the Pope County Sheriff’s Office.
The missing report for Hopper was filed on September 11, 1998.
Samantha, her daughter, and her blue Ford Tempo were never found, according to the statement. Samantha was reportedly on her way to drop off her daughter Courtney Holt before going on to a performance in Little Rock.
The automobile was discovered eight feet below the surface by the charitable organization.
The human remains in the automobile will be taken to the Arkansas State Crime Lab in Little Rock, according to officials, so that their DNA may be examined.
The Pope County Sheriff’s Office released a statement saying, “We are grateful to have played a small part in helping to bring this 23-year-old case to closure and would like to send our sincere condolences to the family of Samantha Hopper and Courtney Holt.”
Hopper’s daughter Dezarea wrote on a memorial page that her mother was nine months pregnant when she vanished.
Dezarea’s sister was roughly two years old. Dezarea described the discovery of their bodies as a “relief.”
Simon Cowell concerns fans with appearance as they ‘don’t recognise him’
Simon Cowell has sparked concerns among his fans after a video was posted in which he calls on people to audition for the next series of Britain’s Got Talent.
In the clip, the TV judge appeals for contestants for the programme, stating: “I always say on this show, two or three minutes can change your life. And it has. And maybe this time it’s going to be you.
“So please audition now for next year’s season and I look forward to meeting you.”
But many were left shocked and stunned at Cowell’s appearance, saying that they “didn’t recognise him.”
One person wrote: “Simon Cowell brought to you via Nintendo Gamecube it seems.”
Another replied saying: “Ya wouldn’t think he had work done at all. Flawless.”
Someone else simply asked him: “What have you done to your face?!?!”
