There's just been a long time in between."\nBehrman, 19, was last seen riding her bike alone just south of Bloomington on the morning of May 31, 2000.\nInvestigators have said she probably was hit by a pickup truck driven by someone under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and her body dumped.\nThe bones were discovered Sunday by a hunter who was scouting the countryside north of Paragon, about 30 miles southwest of Indianapolis, for the upcoming turkey season.\nBehrman said his family would not attend the news conference.\n"There's just so many unanswered questions right now," he said.
