No these 2 incidents are not related. I was involved in both searches with the Michigan Militia, and WCSD. As far as I know they didn't know each other, and the incidents were very different. It's too bad the result was the same.

Yes, there was a woman missing not too far from here recently. She unfortunately was found dead in the woods near her home (she possibly had a health related issue or injury). Not related at all.

Didn't a woman recently disappear in that same area?
