Investigators hope tests on a three-ton hunk of concrete will
soon solve the 1989 disappearance of a young mother, by determining
whether her remains were fed through wood chipper and then entombed
in the basement of a Pennsylvania duplex.
Sunbury Police Chief Tim Miller announced earlier this month
that preliminary results showed the concrete contained wood chips,
and he's waiting to see if they also hold the remains of Barbara
Elizabeth Miller.
A forensic pathologist is "dissecting the walls, so to speak,
piece by piece, hammer-and-chisel type, looking for the smallest of
clues," Police Chief Tim Miller, no relation to victim Barbara
Miller, said last week. He called it "mere speculation if a wood
chipper was or wasn't used. Obviously the presence of wood chips in
a concrete wall is highly suspicious."
An affidavit used to obtain a search warrant for the Milton home
disclosed that Sunbury police investigators believe the woman may
have been killed by her ex-boyfriend, a Sunbury policeman named
Joseph Walter "Mike" Egan.
