God give a mouth to someone with information please. She is someone’s daughter, sister, aunt, mother maybe. Be a human being & own up to this. Prayers for her & any family & friends. May she be at peace with God’s love surronding her.
Poor woman. RIP.
She could have been there for months.
it said body not remains. think forest.. animals.
Wrong!
Condolences and Prayers to the Family.
Obviously she hasn’t been there “months” if the preliminary report can say victims was a white female.
no merci has never learned about ” body farms ” used to teach forensics & pathology courses.
i’m no idiot. of course I know about them. one was once my back yard.
The Mansfield compound was your backyard?
How can anyone help with information when there isnt even enough info for us to go off of?
Prayers that they find more information and justice
I wish they would up update this. I know a woman who lives in a home in the forest. Please update this.

They know who she but the police are still investigating who put her body there. I can’t wait till they bring them hoodlums down who through her there like an animal. Karma is a wonderful thing. Rip we are going to find the evidence needed to bring them in for you.
