‘This is heartbreaking’: Remains of 3 children found in Memphis may have been there for years

Authorities say they are investigating the discovery of unidentified remains of three children, believed to be between 3 and 7 years of age, in Memphis that could have been there for years.

At a news conference Wednesday, Memphis Police Chief Cerelyn “CJ” Davis said a skull was found near a wooded area by someone walking their dog on March 8, who reported it to police. That led to further searches over the days and weeks. A K-9 cadaver dog led authorities to a drainage pipe later searched by camera. On April 1, investigators found another skull, this one in the drainage system, Davis said.
