| Video Discription | (17 Sep 1999) English/Nat Forensic experts from Federal Bureau of Investigation (F-B-I) Laboratories have discovered up to 200 bodies in Kosovo. They have just returned from province where they were gathering evidence for the War Crimes Tribunal at the Hague. The experts may end up testifying at the Hague against the Yugoslav President who has been accused of atrocities in Kosovo. F-B-I officials revealed evidence of atrocities they found during two recent trips to the province on Thursday during a press conference held at their Washington headquarters. They say they have uncovered close to 200 corpses in the area and have identified around 75 percent of the bodies. Identification was especially difficult as nearly all of the corpses were at a late stage of decomposition. Working closely with local villagers and using victims' clothing and personal belongings was the only way to identify the dead. F-B-I officials insisted the work was critical. SOUNDBITE: (English) "The United States, having invested so much to bring an end to the military confrontation and the ethnic cleansing in Kosovo, needed to be well represented in the subsequent efforts to find evidence in support of the indictment of Milosevic and his colleagues." SUPER CAPTION: Doctor Don Kerr, Assistant Director, Federal Bureau of Investigation Laboratories The worst crime scene the F-B-I found was in the town of Gornje Obrinje, near Pristina. There they discovered the remains 23 members of the same family - ranging in age from 4 to 94. SOUNDBITE: (English) "An extended family of 23 people with the same last name were actually murdered in this area. They were living in the woods, which is the photograph in the lower left hand corner." SUPER CAPTION: Art Eberhart, Investigative Response Section, Federal Bureau of Investigation According to the F-B-I the Serbian army trapped the family then murdered them. SOUNDBITE: (English) "The family was hiding in the woods when the Serbian Army came through, they pushed them down into a little area which was washed out by a river that ran through here. And they trapped them in this little gorge area and they just gunned them down, and they threw in a few hand grenades. We found evidence of a hand grenade spoon in the woods." SUPER CAPTION: Art Eberhart, Investigative Response Section, Federal Bureau of Investigation The youngest of the family, a four-year-old boy, was wearing this red snowsuit at the time he was killed. The F-B-I brought back bullets, shell casings and some of the victims' personal belongings, such as clothing riddled with bullet holes. The evidence will be shipped to the Hague, the officials say, as soon as they're through conducting ballistics, blood and D-N-A tests. The bureau's final report will go to the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia within the next three months. The F-B-I has already given the tribunal some information.
