The National Institute of Legal Medicine and Northwestern Regional Forensic Sciences in Medellín, Colombia, is seeking the family of Héctor Ovidio Mayor Campero, a 42-year-old man whose body has remained unclaimed since December 20, 2024.
According to official records, Mr. Campero was born on December 3, 1982, in Yarumal, Antioquia. Despite extensive efforts, no family members or acquaintances have come forward to identify or claim his remains.
Authorities are urging anyone with facts about Mr. Campero to contact the Institute immediately.The Institute’s headquarters are located at Carrera 65 # 80-325, Caribe neighborhood, in Medellín. Individuals can also reach them by phone at 604 501 24 20, extensions 36202, 36204, or 36200.
This case highlights the challenges faced by forensic institutions worldwide in identifying and returning remains to families. Similar situations in the United States often involve extensive DNA testing and collaboration with national missing persons databases. The complexities of such investigations underscore the importance of maintaining accurate records and fostering interaction between law enforcement, medical examiners, and the public.
