May she finally be at peace. I'm local to her case and I remember reading she left a suicide note . But here recently I was told that wasn't true. I'm beginning to think she did .

Chief Deputy Major Adam Carnal said in the post that items found at the scene were similar to those connected with the missing person case of Amanda Caudill.
Caudill's family reported her missing on December 15, 2014.
They said she had been wearing a camouflage coat and muck boots.
They also said she had her cell phone and a .270 rifle.
The clothing items found last week match the clothes her family said she was wearing, as does the cell phone.
Investigators also found a Missouri driver's license belonging to Amanda Caudill in one of the pockets.
The Crawford County Coroner's Office took custody of the remains, but it could take months for official identification.

Several items found along with human skeletal remains discovered last week in Crawford County appear to belong to Amanda Caudill, reported missing on Dec. 15, 2014.
Maj. Adam Carnal, chief deputy of the Crawford County Sheriff’s Office, stated in a press release that Caudill was reported missing, along with a .270 rifle, a camouflage coat, Muck boots, and her cell phone.
“The items of clothing that have been recovered during the search from March 15-17, 2023m are consistent with those same items and a .270 rifle was also located,” Carnal stated. “Further search of the clothing resulted in the discovery of a cell phone matching the description provided for Amanda’s cellular phone. Additionally, a Missouri driver’s license belonging to Amanda Caudill was located within one of the pockets.”
The Crawford County Coroner’s Office now has the remains for identification.
“It may be several months before any confirmation of identity,” Carnal stated. “The Sheriff’s Office has been in contact with members of the Caudill family advising them of the preliminary findings. The investigation is ongoing and when further information is developed it will be released.”
Carnal said the sheriff’s office is grateful to the Crawford County Coroner’s Office, Steelville Fire Protection District and the Rolla Rural Fire District for their assistance in the search and recovery.
Skeletal remains were found on private property March 16 on Mound Ridge Road in Crawford County by searchers that included members of the Rolla Rural Fire Department.
“At this time there has not been a positive identification of the remains,” Maj. Adam Carnal, chief deputy of the Crawford County Sheriff’s Office, wrote in a statement posted on the sheriff’s Facebook page. “We are in the early stages of this investigation and will provide additional information when available.”
In a statement issued last week, Carnal noted, “In the evening hours of March 14, 2023, it was reported to our office that suspicious clothing items were located on private property on Mound Ridge Rd., in Cook Station.”
The next morning, “investigators applied for and were granted a search warrant for a property to retrieve items and evidence regarding the clothing items.”
It was then, at the beginning of the search that deputies and investigators found human skeletal remains along with the clothing that had been reported.
“Due to the remoteness, terrain, and scale of the area, the search was halted in the early evening. It was determined that in order to conduct a more thorough search the following day, additional assistance would be needed,” Carnal stated Friday. “Contact was made with Steelville Fire Department and the Rolla Rural Fire Department who offered their assistance.”

Her skeletal remains were found last year. I believe she was depressed and committed suicide. May she rest in peace.

I'm from the area. We figured this would be the eventual result, but it's still just sad. She was so well-loved and the entire county was very invested in finding her and bringing her home.
She made her intentions known and went out into the woods to commit suicide. She was bipolar, dealing with being gay in a rural bible belt area, and had some substance abuse issues, and her entire family was frequently in conflict.
The area her body was found is such thick dense woods that her family, police, and hunters walked right over her/near her for years and it wasn't until her bones got scattered onto the right property that she was noticed.
It's so desolate that much of it is only accessible by ATV- and some spots not even that. It's heartbreaking.
