[glow=red,2,300]OH THIS MAKES ME SOOOOOOO ANGRY! THEY FOUND HER BODY NEAR WHERE THE CAR WAS FOUND. WHAT!!! THEY DIDN'T BOTHER LOOKING THEREEEEEEEEEEE?[/glow]
CALUMET CITY, Ill. - A drug sales representative who disappeared last week was found dead near a forest preserve, not far from where her car was abandoned, her uncle said Thursday.
Calumet City Police Chief Russell Larson confirmed only that an unidentified woman’s body had been found in the area Thursday morning. But Nailah Franklin’s uncle Jon Merrill and family friend Andrew Holms said authorities had told the family the body is that of his 28-year-old niece.
Franklin was reported missing Sept. 19 after she missed a meeting with her boss at Indianapolis-based Eli Lilly. Her car was discovered in Hammond, Ind., on Friday night near an abandoned building.
Shortly before she disappeared, Franklin had filed a police report about getting threatening phone calls from a man she had dated briefly. Chicago police said Monday they had interviewed someone Franklin once dated but have not named a suspect in her disappearance.
Relatives and volunteers papered the area with fliers and took out a newspaper ad seeking the public’s help after her disappearance. They also offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to her whereabouts.
