Sheriff's officials said the Riverside County Coroner has not yet identified the body so they could not speculate as to whether the dead woman and a developmentally disabled woman reported missing during the same time period are one and the same.


Riverside County Sheriff’s Sergeant Joseph Borja said they don’t have
information on the woman’s age, name or how the death occurred.
