Tami Abdollah and Haven Daley report for AP:

Officials said Thursday that the burned remains found in a California mountain cabin have been positively identified as fugitive former police officer Christopher Dorner.

Jodi Miller, a spokeswoman for the San Bernardino County sheriff-coroner, said the identification was made through Dorner's dental records.

Miller did not give a cause of death.

Much has already been said about the utterly revolting phenomenon of people lionizing this multiple murderer.  I don't have much to add.  It is one more indication of the downward spiral of our society.
