Storage Location: San Bernardino County Evidence Storage Facility, Climate-Controlled Room B-7
Date Collected: August 24, 1993
Collected By: Det. ████████, Crime Scene Unit
Seven (7) black wax candles, handmade, approximately 8 inches in length. Each candle bears carved symbols consistent with occult ritual practices. Forensic analysis confirms:
Similar candles found at:
Dr. Rebecca Chen, Forensic Pathologist
"The consistency of manufacture and symbolic carving suggests single source of production. The specific wax blend indicates either specialized knowledge of candle-making or access to restricted materials. Symbol analysis by UC Riverside Anthropology Department confirms these match historical occult practices documented in 19th century Inland Empire folklore."
Det. Joseph Kirby, Major Crimes Unit
"Pattern suggests perpetrator maintains ritual site for candle production. Wax analysis indicates materials sourced outside our jurisdiction. Request FBI consultation on multi-state occult supply chain investigation."
STATUS UPDATE - 2010:
Re-examination of evidence in connection with Sheridan case reveals DNA traces on candle base. Sample submitted to ██████ for comparison.
