The Mesa County Sheriff's Office announced that remains found inside a freezer in January have been identified as those from a 16-year-old girl who went missing in 2005.
A human head and set of hands found inside a freezer at a western Colorado home recently sold before the discovery in January have been discovered as those of a 16-year-old girl who went missing almost 20 years ago. On Jan. 12, people were cleaning out a Grand Junction, Colorado, home, located nearly 200 miles west of Denver, when they discovered a human head and hands inside a freezer.
Overstreet was the biological daughter of the previous owner of the home, which has since changed ownership multiple times. While the remains have been identified as Overstreet, investigators continue to look into the circumstances surrounding her disappearance and forensic testing for evidence remains ongoing.

Police told Houston Public Media no arrests have been made, and no suspects have been publicly identified. In a post on social media, the sheriff’s office added that the home where the homicide investigation is centered is under new ownership by people completely unrelated to the case, urging the public to respect the current owner’s and neighbor’s privacy.
