The skeleton of Daniel S. Burroughs, of Hamilton Township, NJ, was in pieces.
His
skull, spine and ribs, all a sickly shade of yellowish orange, were
positioned on a white sheet, somewhat near where they should be, except
that none of the bones were connected to each other. Arm, hand, and leg
bones were also detached.
The jury gasped as the photo was displayed on the criminal courtroom projection screen.
Burroughs
had been reported missing on September 1, 2007. Almost seven years
later, on May 17, 2013, his remains were discovered in two plastic boxes
in the Ventnor, NJ home of his former wife.
Loretta
Doyle Burroughs, 63, is now standing trial in Atlantic County, NJ,
charged with the murder of her husband, who was 66 when he disappeared.
