Alyssa Turnbull was last seen in Nipigon between March 23 and 25, 2020. She was 26 when she disappeared, Ontario Provincial Police said in a news release Wednesday.
“Her remains were located Oct. 25 … in a remote area of Kaministiquia, which is located west of Kakabeka Falls,” police said.
“The circumstances surrounding Alyssa's disappearance and death are confirmed to be suspicious.”
Her mother, Deb Otway, set up a GoFundMe page in 2021 to fund searches in the Nipigon and Thunder Bay areas.
Two men, ages 29 and 61, have already been charged in connection with Turnbull’s disappearance. They were arrested in June 2022 and charged with committing and indignity to a human body and obstructing justice.
They are next scheduled to appear in court Nov. 3.
