Skeletal remains found nearly 40 years ago have been identified as those of a guitarist who once played with the R&B group The O'Jays and also co-wrote a few of their songs, investigators said. Authorities used DNA and genealogical research to identify the remains of Frank "Frankie" Little Jr., which were found in a garbage bag in a wooded area behind a business in Twinsburg in 1982, said Summit County Medical Examiner Lisa Kohler.
Recent research and testing from the DNA Doe Project led to the identification of Little after a close relative provided a matching DNA sample, CBS affiliate WOIO-TV. reported.
"There were distant DNA matches that were from South Carolina that we reached out to and they were willing to help out and provide family trees," Detective Eric Hendershott of the Twinsburg Police told the station.
