New York City Resumes Search for Human Remains in 9/11 Debris 
--------------------------------------------------------------


 
More than 11 years after the September 11 attacks, the New York City
medical examiner’s office is resuming its search for human remains in
debris collected from around the World Trade Center site. Of the more
than 2,700 people who died at the World Trade Center, only about 1,600
have been identified. Some relatives, including Sally Regenhard,
expressed frustration they have gone so long without the remains of
their loved ones.

Sally Regenhard: "We really are calling for an inspector general to be
placed in the OCME (Office of the Chief Medical Examiner) office to
really oversee what is happening there and why after 11 years, 1,000
people, including my son, firefighter Christian Regenhard, remain
missing at the World Trade Center site."
