According to the sheriff's office, the victim’s body decayed quickly due to the lack of air conditioning in the trailer. The death is being investigated as heat-related.
Acquaintances of the deceased woman, who had not been identified pending next-of-kin's notification, plan to retrieve her pet cats; but until that, the Benton County Animal Shelter will take care of the pets.
