Authorities are awaiting identification of the remains of three more bodies found in Iraq, a U.S. law enforcement official said Tuesday.
Sources say the remains are those of more missing contractors; the news comes a day after the remains of two kidnapped contractors were identified.
Among the missing are Paul Johnson Reuben of Buffalo, Minnesota.
The others still missing are Jonathon Cote, of Getzville, N.Y.; Joshua Munns of Redding, Calif.; and Bert Nussbaumer of Vienna, Austria.
A finger from each was received by the military recently.
Four other kidnapped Western contractors have been missing for more than a year. The disappearances received new attention this month when the severed fingers of several men were sent to the U.S. military in Iraq.
Several relatives had taken the discovery of the fingers as a hopeful sign but hopes dimmed Monday when the FBI said the remains of Ronald Withrow of Roaring Springs, Texas, and John Roy Young of Kansas City, Mo., had been identified.
A U.S. law enforcement official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the identification process is ongoing, confirmed that three other bodies are awaiting testing.
Tragic
And may the slimeballs who murdered them be damned to hell.
But if we only stopped waterboarding Muslims, this wouldn’t have happened!

God rest their souls.
Agreed. R.I.P. Thank you Lord, for their lives spent in our service.
I fear for all FReepers who we know there when I hear these stories.
