Human remains belonging to three people were found inside a foreclosed home in Connecticut, and investigators have now identified two of them as a mother and son.
Authorities said the skeletal remains were discovered on June 14 at a property on Stanwich Lane in Burlington after a new buyer entered the home following a foreclosure auction.
Connecticut State Police said troopers responded to the address at 4:46 p.m. after receiving a report of human remains inside the structure.
According to state police, the home had been purchased “as is” at a foreclosure auction, and the remains of three individuals were found inside.
Court and property records reported by local outlets indicate the home had been owned by Paul and Sally Ann Cash since 2019, and the foreclosure process began in August 2025 after the owners did not appear in court. The property was later sold at public auction.
Investigators have since identified two of the sets of remains as 54-year-old Sally Ann Cash and her 22-year-old son, Brian Cash.
Officials said both have pending causes of death, and the third person found in the home has still not been identified.
State police said there is no indication of anything suspicious and no apparent criminal aspect to the case at this time.
The investigation has also drawn attention to several prior calls made to the property. Burlington Volunteer Fire Department records show responders were sent to the home multiple times in late 2021 and again in May 2026 after an alarm sounded.
Officials said the house appeared vacant during those earlier visits, and firefighters did not force entry into the residence.
On June 14, firefighters were called back to the property to test for carbon monoxide, but none was detected.
Authorities said the case remains under investigation by the Connecticut State Police Western District Major Crime unit, the Burlington Police Department, the state forensic laboratory and the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.
Investigators have said the incident appears isolated and there is no danger to the public.
