WASHINGTON, Nov. 2 (UPI) -- Photos of bone fragments believed to be Chandra Levy's were shown to jurors Tuesday in D.C. Superior Court in the trial of her alleged killer, Ingmar Guandique.
Forensic anthropologist David Hunt said during the trial's sixth day of testimony that Levy's dental X-rays are "very consistent" with the remains found in Washington's Rock Creek Park in May 2002, one year after her disappearance. He also said the remains indicated evidence of a nose fracture consistent with a surgical procedure Levy had.
Hunt also said the hyoid bone, a tiny bone in the neck, was broken in a manner consistent with strangulation, though he could not rule out other possibilities for its fracture, such as animal activity.
Levy was an intern at the Federal Bureau of Prisons when she disappeared in May 2001.
