Remains of Teen Missing Since 2005 Found in Colorado Freezer

The discovery of Amanda Overstreet's head and hands in a freezer prompts a homicide investigation, with no prior missing person report filed.

Amanda Overstreet, last seen in 2005, was identified through DNA testing of remains found in a Grand Junction home's freezer.
The remains, discovered in January 2024, were initially found by someone claiming a free appliance from the new homeowner.
Overstreet was the biological daughter of the home's previous owner, and there is no record of her being reported missing.
Authorities have not recovered the rest of Overstreet's body and are treating her death as a homicide.
The Mesa County Sheriff's Office continues to investigate the circumstances of her disappearance and death.
