Identification of Council case aids serial murder probe
Investigators linked a deceased woman to the 1986 disappearance of Jackie Council after skeletal analysis and facial superimposition pointed to her remains. Townsend says the find could open a murder case for three naked bodies found near each other, prompting renewed community cooperation and a broader inquiry. The two remaining unidentified bodies are described by age, height, and distinguishing features. Investigators urge tip calls to the Aiken County Sheriff’s Office or Crime Stoppers with anonymity and possible rewards.
