Speaking from the French Alps town of Seyne-les-Alpes, Col. Patrick Touron of the gendarme service said “we haven’t found a single body intact.”
He also said DNA samples have been taken from objects provided by the victims’ families — such as toothbrushes — that could help identify the victims.
Touron also said jewelry and other objects could help in the identification process.
Why is such gruesome news even being reported? This will only lead to more suffering for the families. A shanda that such gory details have to appear in print!
