Kansas City, Kansas, police are still trying to figure out who the bones found in a 55-gallon barrel in May belong to and they've released the picture of a candy wrapper hoping it'll help. 

KCK police released the photo on the right yesterday of a 1995 King Size Reese's peanut butter cup candy wrapper. In May, they released a photo of jewelry found with the woman's

bones.


Police believe the woman was murdered between 1995 and 2005. They

believe she was white or Asian and between 33 and 56 years old. She was

wearing a dark

brown wig and clear-colored artificial

fingernails at the time of her death. She was about 5-foot-5 or

5-foot-7. Her teeth were said to be in "fair condition with filings."

discovered the bones in a barrel in

the 1700 block of North 51st Terrace on May 7.

If the case sounds familiar, it's because serial killer John

E. Robinson hid the bodies of his victims in drums on his farm

in La Cygne, Kansas, and in a storage space in Raymore, Missouri.
