Authorities have uncovered human remains while searching 4 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: for Kata Scott, a woman reported missing just two weeks 5 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,440 Speaker 1: ago after leaving her job at a nursing home. John Stanford, 6 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,440 Speaker 1: the Deputy Commissioner of the Philadelphia Police Department, confirmed at 7 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,159 Speaker 1: a press briefing that the remains were found in a 8 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: shallow grave near an abandoned middle school on Saturday. 9 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 2: Based on the investigative information based on the investigation of 10 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 2: what they were following up on that tip today led 11 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 2: us back to this area behind the school whereas a 12 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 2: wooded area. I don't know if any of you have 13 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 2: been back there, but as a wooded area that goes 14 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 2: beyond the school. And so we begin to go back 15 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: into that area where we would locate a shallow grave. 16 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 2: After being able to remove some of the debris back there, 17 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 2: able to locate the body of the human being. All 18 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 2: indications at this point is that it's a female. 19 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: The Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office will be responsible for identifying 20 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: those remains. 21 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 2: We are not going to confirm at this point that 22 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 2: it is miss Kata Scott, because that has to be 23 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 2: done by the Medical Examiner's office, but we have been 24 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 2: in communication with her family as to this process and 25 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 2: in the fact that we have recovered a human being. 26 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 1: Scott's family reported her missing on October five, the day 27 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: after she left her overnight shift early at the assisted 28 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: living facility where she worked. The case has captured the 29 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: city's attention, resulting in a significant turnout of volunteers assisting 30 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: the police in the search for Scott. This is a 31 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: tragic development and our hearts go out to Kata's family 32 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: and friends during this incredible time, the police department expressed 33 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: in a statement following the discovery of the remains. The 34 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: grim finding comes shortly after police apprehended a suspect related 35 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: to Scott's disappearance. Keon King, twenty one years old, was 36 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: taken into custody on October fourteen, facing charges of kidnapping 37 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 1: and reckless endangerment. As stated by prosecutors, authorities indicated that 38 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: there was evidence suggesting King had been in contact with 39 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: Scott prior to her disappearance. Earlier reports noted that Scott 40 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: had confided in family members about being harassed, but it 41 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: remains unclear if she was referring to King. In addition, 42 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: King is considered the primary suspect in another kidnapping incident, 43 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: where he allegedly forced a woman into his car outside 44 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: her home and assaulted her. That case was previously dismissed 45 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: when a witness failed to report and appear in court, 46 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 1: but it has since been reopened. During a news conference 47 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: over the weekend, Stanford urged anyone with information about the 48 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: case or King to reach out to law enforcement. We 49 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: are not certain if there are other victims connected to 50 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: this individual we have in custody, he remarked. The remains 51 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: were located in a wooded area adjacent to the Ada 52 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: Lewis Middle School. That's an abandoned school in Philadelphia's German 53 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: Town neighborhood. Last week, police searched that vicinity and recovered 54 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: items belonging to Scott, including an iPad case, a card 55 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: with her name on it, and a pair of glasses. 56 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 1: While investigators had already focused on the densely wooded area, 57 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: it was that anonymous tip that ultimately led to this breakthrough. 58 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: Stanford noted that the tip was submitted via the department's 59 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: anonymous tip line, which guided them to that shallow grave. 60 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: We do not know the identity of the tipster, but 61 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: we are thankful for their submission that directed us there, 62 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: he said, Nicole, thank you.
