Forensics tests have determined the identity of skeletal remains found in a wooded area in Kenosha earlier this year.
According to the Kenosha Police Department, the remains were those of Hozia Jackson, a 51-year-old Chicago man who had been reported missing in 2012.
The skeletal remains were found on April 5 in a wooded area to the west of 122nd Avenue, close to I-94.
After the remains were determined to be human, they were sent to a forensic anthropologist who matched the DNA to Jackson.
Jackson's death remains under investigation.
