A forensic expert from the University of Toronto will assist Hamilton Police Thursday with a mysterious homicide investigation.

Dr. Tracy Rogers, director of forensic anthropology at U of T, will lead a search team to help police locate Shirley Treadwell's remains. Treadwell, a 62-year-old Stoney Creek woman, is believed to have died sometime in 2009.

Treadwell had a mental disability. Her niece and caregiver Melinda Evans was charged with indignity to a human body and fraud charges in September of this year. Evans allegedly disposed of her aunt's body and collected disability cheques.

Police were alerted to Treadwell's death in July 2012.

Rogers and police will search the area from Barton Street to Highway 8 and Glover Road to Jones Road.

Police say Roger's expertise could help find Treadwell's body.

The search should take two days, police said.
