A forensic anthropologist who brings closure for the "disappeared"

Title:: A forensic anthropologist who brings closure for the "disappeared"
Speaker:: Fredy Peccerelli
Description:: In Guatemala's 36-year conflict, 200,000 civilians were killed — and more than 40,000 were never identified. At the Forensic Anthropology Foundation of Guatemala, Fredy Peccerelli and his team use DNA, archeology and storytelling to help families find the bodies of their loved ones. It's a sobering task, but it can bring peace of mind — and sometimes, justice. (Contains medical imagery.)
