Shoes, human bones and other remains were found along the Rio Culubré near Bocas del Toro providence yesterday. Forensic specialists were flown today to the site to extract DNA samples and run confirmatory tests. Tennis shoes located at the scene are a brand sold exclusively in Holland. Confirmation the remains belong to Lisanne Froon and Kris Kremers is pending. Local residents of the area where the remains were found surmise that the two women may have fallen into the river and been carried downstream by the forceful currents. Large rocks in the riverbed, as well as snakes and poisonous spiders are some of the hazards they could have encountered.
Below is a link to the latest TV video regarding the missing women and the recent discovery. It also has relevant footage of Boquete, and introduces the recommendation for trail maintenance and international signage to accommodate increased ecotourism in the area.
