Thus far, forensic anthropologist Dr. Erin Kimmerle and her team from the University of South Florida have uncovered 55 sets of human remains.

One of the most famous of these lawspeakers was the Icelander Snorri Sturluson.

When she took the job, she thought a small station with a tiny population of just over 4,000 people would be quiet compared to her last post.
