Lets leave it there

both those bodies recovered had disintegrated while being raised through warmer water and stronger currents to the surface
Without going into detail, there were a number of cautions raised in this forum and doubtless elsewhere about retrieving bodies underwater for two years. I suspect the judicial authorities in charge have now seen the validity of these cautions.

Retrieval of bodies in this state can be very hard on those involved, and it's likely completely impossible to treat such remains in a dignified manner.
