Body found near Des Plaines River identified as male

For families of Stacy Peterson and Lisa Stebic, search goes on

The human remains discovered last week on the shore of the Des Plaines River were identified by authorities Wednesday as that of a male, ruling out speculation they could be those of missing Will County women Stacy Peterson or Lisa Stebic.

DNA testing by the Illinois State Police Forensic Crime Lab determined the sex of the partial skeletal remains, and authorities said an investigation is under way to find the man's identity.

The findings unleashed a sea of emotions for family members searching for loved ones.

"Oh my God. That totally changes everything," said Stephanie McNeil, sister of missing St. Charles man John Spira, who disappeared in 2007. "Now I'm back on that roller coaster. ... It's just totally shocking."

The body, which consisted of a rib cage, spinal column, and partial left and right femur bones, was found by a cleanup crew working along the river near Channahon just west of Interstate Highway 55. The remains included shreds of jeans containing a small amount of money, which a source said was about $20. On Saturday, Illinois State Police found two more bones not far from where the body was discovered near Big Basin Marina.

Peterson vanished from her Bolingbrook home in October 2007, and Stebic disappeared from her Plainfield home in April 2007. Both lived not far from where the remains were found.

"I think we left ourselves open to this possibility. We're disappointed," Pam Bosco, a spokeswoman for Peterson's family, said Wednesday. "But we're still moving forward, doing the searches, doing the investigation. We're continuing. We're still hopeful that eventually we'll find Stacy."

"It's disappointing," said Melanie Greenberg, a spokeswoman for Stebic's family. "There's no grave to visit. Even if we hadn't had all of her, it would have made all the difference in the world to put her to rest with dignity."

The news sent jarring shock waves throughout the network of other families searching for loved ones.

"Oh my gosh," said Susan Olsen, who has been searching for her son, Bradley Olsen, of Maple Park, since 2007. "I had to sit down. I just got a sick feeling, to be quite honest with you."
