ROME, Ga. -- Police believe the remains of two fetuses found in a storage unit were self-aborted by the wife of a former Indiana women's basketball coach.
Last week, authorities received a tip that Sarah Jo Warner Izard kept the remains of two fetuses in a storage shed in Rome.
Authorities are trying to determine if any laws were broken.
No charges have been filed, and police are unwilling to speculate on what laws, if any, may have been violated for storing the fetuses.
The Izards lived in Rome for two years when Jim Izard coached the Berry College women's basketball team. He resigned in January 2005 and moved to Florida, where he committed suicide last month. Bay County Sheriff's spokeswoman Ruth Sasser said her office has interviewed Sarah Izard about the fetuses, but Sasser wont' comment on what was said.
