Recovery and Identification of Wildfire Victims: Lessons From Paradise and Maui
Forensic anthropologist Eric Bartelink calls search and recovery of fire victims one of the greatest challenges in forensic anthropology-especially after large wildfires.
Bartelink, a professor of physical anthropology at California State University at Chico and team member of the Human Identification Laboratory there, has assisted in humanitarian recoveries and identifications around the world, such as mass grave excavations in Bosnia-Herzegovina for the United Nations International Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia and in the World Trade Center victim identification effort in New York City.
His expertise is frequently called upon to assist in the identification of victims from wildfires, including those that consumed Paradise, California, and Maui, Hawaii.
This lecture is free and open to the public.
