Decades-Old Mystery Solved: Human Remains Found in Kentucky Lake Identified as FBI Fugitive

Human remains found in Kentucky nearly 25 years ago have been identified as those of Roger D. Parham, an FBI fugitive who fled a federal arrest warrant in 1998. The remains were identified using advanced DNA technology and are now being investigated as a homicide. Parham had been released on bond but failed to appear in court on a rape charge. Kentucky State Police worked with a private laboratory specializing in forensic genealogy to make the identification. Parham's relatives have been notified of the discovery.
