Radar Scans Backyard Of Missing San Marino Couple

SAN MARINO, Calif. (AP) ― Homicide investigators have converged on a San Marino home with ground-penetrating radar to determine if the bones of a long-vanished couple may be buried in the backyard.

Sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore says sheriff's and coroner's officials arrived Friday morning and plan to use the radar to scan the yard for anomalies.

Newlyweds Jonathan and Linda Sohus lived in the home before vanishing in 1985. Nine years later, workers building a pool for the new owners unearthed a man's bones that remain unidentified.

The investigation was reignited this month with the kidnapping arrest of Clark Rockefeller, a Baltimore man who once lived in a guest house on the San Marino property. However, he's not been charged with any California crime.
