The body of 30 year old Kayelyn Louder in the Jordan River located near West Valley City, Utah. The body was discovered in 3-4 feet of water by a bridge. Louder has been missing since September.
According to FOX 13 News, her family has released this statement:
We are broken hearted with the news of Kayelyn’s body being found, but are also grateful to know where she is.
This has been an extremely difficult 9+ weeks for all involved. We hope that through all of our efforts that she has been able see how much she is loved and cared for.
We do believe we will be with her again someday and find some comfort knowing she is with family that has passed on before her. We are forever grateful to the volunteers who have helped us in countless ways over the past 9 weeks.
We are amazed at your love and dedication to our family. Countless hours and donations were given in our behalf.
While finding her brings some closure we still have many unanswered questions and will not rest until we are able to fully understand what happened.
We appreciate your continued prayers and support during this difficult time.
Louder was last seen on video surveillance leaving her condo without any personal belongings such as a purse or keys. She was barefooted as well. No one has seen her since Sept 27 until her body was discovered. Due to significant decomposition, she was only identified through her dental records.
Louder’s family is now waiting for an autopsy report to determine the cause of death as police indicted that the body of the young 30 year old was not able to drift the five miles from where it was found, from her apartment. Several questions have been asked, such as murder, rape, or suicide. These answers will be provided when the autopsy returns.
