Advanced Search Techniques and Collaborative Effort Bring Closure to Long-Standing Cold Case

CAMDEN, NEW JERSEY, USA, May 18, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In a remarkable demonstration of collaborative effort and cutting-edge search technology, the United Search Corps Missing Persons Unit has resolved the long-standing mystery surrounding Bernadine Waters Gunner's disappearance. On May 15, 2024, after only 45 minutes of search operations, our unit uncovered both Gunner's remains and her submerged vehicle in the Cooper River, about a mile from her last known location on the 1300 block of Park Blvd, Camden, New Jersey.

The ensuing recovery operation was made possible by a concerted multi-agency effort involving the United Search Corps Missing Persons Unit, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, Camden County Prosecutor's Office, Steve Flanagan's Towing, New Jersey State Police, local law enforcement from Camden County and Pennsauken, and specialized units including the Camden County/Bellmawr Dive Team and the Camden County Office of Emergency Management.

Preliminary identification has confirmed the recovered vehicle and remains belong to Gunner, bringing a significant measure of closure to a case that has gripped the community for over a decade. The investigation is ongoing, under the leadership of the Camden County Prosecutor's Office.

This breakthrough marks the second missing persons cold case recovered and solved within the last two weeks in New Jersey by United Search Corps. As we share this discovery, our hearts go out to Bernadine's family, friends, and all who have been touched by this tragedy. United Search Corps remains steadfast in our mission to deliver answers and advocacy to families of the missing.
