FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Jan. 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ โ€“ Identifinders International, in conjunction with the Houston Institute of Forensic Sciences and audiochuck, announces the identification of 1981 Harris County murder victims as then 21 year-old Harold Dean Clouse and spouse 17 year-old Tina Gail (Linn) Clouse.

 

had been deceased approximately two months prior to their discovery on January 12, 1981, when a dog led searchers to their remains. Mr. Clouse was found beaten, bound and gagged. Ms. Clouse had been strangled.

 

The couple left their home in Volusia County, Florida in 1981 with their one year-old baby for Mr. Clouse to pursue carpentry work in Texas. Soon after, the couple's car was returned to the family who was led them to believe the couple had joined a religious group and no longer wanted contact.

 

In July 2011, Dr. Jennifer Love, Forensic Anthropology Director of the Identification Unit-Harris County Medical Examiner's office, exhumed the bodies to extract DNA to determine if the two were related.

 

But closure of these cases has led to another mystery: the whereabouts of baby Hollie Marie. No baby was found with the couple's bodies and no Baby Doe cases have been found that match her description. Work is continuing to list Hollie Marie Clouse with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
