Remains Found In Tampa Bay Identified As Second Missing Doctoral Student

About this episode

Authorities have identified remains found in Tampa Bay as those of missing doctoral student Nahida Bristy, linked to a murder investigation involving her friend and a charged suspect.

Authorities announced they have finally identified remains found by local fishermen as the body of 27-year-old Nahida Bristy. Officials had to use DNA and dental records to make the ID, after they found the body of her friend Zamil Limon on a bridge above the bay days earlier. Limon’s roommate, 26-year-old Hisham Abugharbieh has been charged with their premeditated murders, after police say they have physical, digital and forensic evidence tying him to the crime, including damning searches, like, “can a knife penetrate a skull.”  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
