Philadelphia Police Discover Human Remains in Missing Woman Case
Philadelphia authorities have uncovered human remains during the ongoing search for 23-year-old Kada Scott, who vanished approximately two weeks ago after leaving her nursing home job. The remains were found near a vacant school in the Germantown area, a location thoroughly searched by law enforcement with the assistance of K-9 units and numerous recruits.
Investigation Developments and Suspect Charges
Keon King, a 21-year-old man initially charged with kidnapping in connection with Scott's disappearance, now faces additional accusations including arson, conspiracy, and evidence tampering. Police believe a stolen and later burned vehicle was used to transport Scott to the site where her remains were discovered. Surveillance footage and cell phone data place King at key locations tied to the case, though homicide charges have yet to be filed as the investigation continues.

The discovery followed a precise tip to police, underscoring the communityβs role in aiding the investigation. Authorities urge accountability for those responsible and honor Scottβs memory by encouraging kindness and care. The case remains active as officials work to bring justice and closure to the family.
