According to the Twitter account dedicated to the search for Spierer, pathology results should be handed over to the coroner's office this week.

The skull was found in the White River in Indianapolis last month.

A tooth is being compared to the IU student's dental records.

Spierer was last seen in June 2011 after a night out with friends in Bloomington.
