Volunteers searching a wooded hillside near Seattle found another set of skeletal remains that could be linked to the so-called Green River killer, who may have killed as many as 34 young women, many of them prostitutes, since 1982, police said. The latest discovery followed the finding earlier last week of the skeletal remains of two young women in the same area. The remains of those two victims have not been identified, but investigators are convinced they should be added to the list of murders attributed to the Green River killer. Investigators will not know until later this week if the third body is also a victim of the killer.
