The discovery of Dorothy Jane Scott's remains on August 6, 1984, was a disturbing progression in the years-long bout of torment for her family members, but unfortunately, it did not offer her loved ones any resolution. Morbidology claimed her parent's received one last phone call from the mysterious man that posed a cryptic question: "Is Dorothy home?"
Years have since passed and authorities were never able to locate the killer, identify the man on the phone, or determine if the two were one and the same. According to CyberSleuths, Dorothy's parents maintained that the man was the killer, but with no hard evidence to connect the dots, they were unable to solve the puzzle.
Jacob died in 1994, and Vera died in 2002, as reported by True Crime Diaries. Although neither were able to achieve peace of mind through the capture of their daughter's killer, Jacob had some final words before he passed. "If he really ever had any compassion for her, it just seems the decent thing to do would be to let us know where her remains are so we can give her a Christian burial," he said.
