On April 24, 2024, hunters found the body of this female in the woods at the end of a culvert in Coaticook, Quebec, close to border of Vermont and New Hampshire, United States of America. The victim was wearing several pieces of clothing including a toque, winter coat, jeans, wool stockings, winter boots. An autopsy was performed and the probable cause of death is likely due to environmental hypothermia.


Considering this is close to the US border, I've looked through NamUs but couldn't find any probable match.
As they have the prescription number for her glasses, is there any way to crosscheck this information? Maybe to see if the prescription number pattern is American or Canadian?

I wonder what happened? Got lost in the woods? She was dressed for cold weather but apparently not enough. Did she suffer from mental illness or substance use? According to the article she had a teenaged daughter in Brazil and no family in the US/Canada. Sadly that is what took so long to identify her
