Secret life surprises kin, pals of missing woman
The Mesa County Coroner has examined human remains after someone found them in Utah and turned them over to the County Sheriff's office.
The bones have been returned to the Utah State Medical Examiner's Office, according to a release from the Coroner's office.
"Citizens should be reminded that it is illegal to move any discovered remains that may be human and should notify law enforcement immediately before taking any further action," Mesa County coroner Robert A. Kurtzman said in the release.
Someone brought the remains to the Sheriff's Office last Thursday.
For the past year, authorities have been looking for Paige Birgfeld, a mother of three who worked as an escort and disappeared in June 2007.
Searchers have combed remote areas and have found checks and other possessions.
Frank Birgfeld, Paige's father, said earlier this week that investigators told him that they had found remains. "But it was almost an aside. They called and talked about some other things that we had been communicating about, and at the end, they said, 'Look, you know, because there will probably be press around today asking questions, we found some remains.' "
