Couple horrified after finding 'suitcase of bones' when trying to renovate garden

A woman has been sharing her story online after having the police around digging up her garden because a 'suitcase full of bones' was found there.

Yes, you heard that right.

Here's a video in which she explains the situation:

It’s not as if they’ve found some old archaeological stuff or maybe the remains of an old pet knocking around in the back yard.

As ever, we'll have to wait to see what the police say, but it certainly appears that there's something seriously strange going on.

The whole ordeal started when Rebecca-Lynne Chols' husband was digging in the garden of their Tennessee home and discovered what he believed to be a tree root.

Upon pulling it out, he discovered it was actually a bone, she claims.

So, he did what every good citizen should do, and called the police.

When they arrived, they started digging around and discovered the 'suitcase full of bones'.

Rebecca-Lynne did the decent thing – for all the nosy b***ards online – and started documenting what was going on.

Writing on TikTok, she said: "When there's a full blown investigation happening in your backyard because your husband dug up a suitcase full of bones while trying to plant trees.”

In the clip, she can be seen standing around the back of the house looking out at the police operation taking place on her property.

There’s not much known about what the alleged case of bones could be connected to, but in another video, Rebecca said that they haven’t lived in the house for a long time, but claimed that there were hoarders living in the house a while ago.

She also claimed that there might be a serial killer who was on the loose in the area once upon a time, and that the police are trying to rule that out.

Rebecca even shared a picture of the suitcase, looking a lot worse for wear after the police got it out of the floor.

She says that the bones are currently undergoing DNA testing to see if they are human or animal remains.

If that does turn out to be the case, then the cops might be back to dig up the garden some more.

And with any luck, she’ll be back with more information, because so far more than 700,000 people have liked the original video, meaning that there’s a lot of people who need answers on this.
