If one was going to speculate on what might be, I would guess that the coroner would use this tool along with other forensic sciences to profile a victim. This could be used in the Green River case here in Washington.

If a bone was a certain size and condition they could determine age. With DNA they could determine race and eye color and maybe a probable hair color.

All pieces of a puzzle, and valuable even if there is a small lack of accuracy in hair color.

Chakraborty determined, with 95 percent certainty, that the unidentified tissue did not belong to anyone of Middle Eastern ancestry.

Interesting....wouldn't you say?
