From 300-year-old murder cases to unidentified bodies on the Texas border, Dr. Harrell Gill-King has investigated it all. As a forensic anthropology professor and founding director of UNT’s Laboratory of Forensic Anthropology, Gill-King has developed what he calls a “junkyard mind” — he knows a lot about a little bit of everything. His knack for digging deeper to find the truth has led to his sterling reputation, and he was recently awarded the American Academy of Forensic Science’s T. Dale Stewart Award for outstanding contributions to the forensic anthropology field.
