I swear, jogging has to be one of the most dangerous activities for women in America.

It's even more basic: being a woman is the most dangerous activity for women in America.

Eh, I'd guess that trying to leave a toxic relationship is even more dangerous.

Augusta University student found dead at University of Georgia, officials say. Police suspect foul play

School and state authorities suspect foul play and are investigating after a woman’s body was found with “visible injuries” on the University of Georgia’s campus Thursday, university officials said.

Police do not have a suspect in the case, Clark said. When he was asked whether there was danger to the public, the chief said: “When you have a suspect that’s on the loose, there’s always a danger. But there’s no immediate danger at this time.”

The student's body was found on Thursday afternoon after her roommate reported her missing.

Police Chief Jeff Clark did not provide details on how the woman died, citing the ongoing investigation.

Clark said his department, along with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the Athens-Clarke County Police Department, were conducting the investigation.

He noted that there has not been a homicide on campus in the last 20 years.

'We're not going to leave any rock unturned in this investigation,' he said.

He also acknowledged that police do not have a suspect in the case yet.

It would seem a little precipitate to say that at this time; if they have no idea -- and no poi ?
Until the perp is apprehended, isn't every woman in danger at that campus ?

But again maybe LE know more than they're saying .
That would not be unusual.
Omo.

he said "no immediate danger"... which I think in LE speak, immediate danger is when there is an active shooter... IMO

I hear ya, but women joggers/walkers/runners were not killed while leaving a relationship but simply because they were women alone, living their lives. And in daylight.

If I had to make an argument I would say being a child or infant is the most dangerous thing you could be.

I'm hoping there were cameras at least somewhere in the vicinity that would've captured someone walking up (then probably) running away, or a car that arrived and left within that time frame.

Katrina in Queens, Vanessa in New Hampshire, Mollie in Iowa. And more.

Sydney Sutherland in Arkansas.

I thought that was doublespeak. Makes it confusing for the local public to interpret. Reminds me of the the Moscow PD statement after the Idaho murders.

We lost a good person way too soon. So sorry to her family - and to all of us in society who would've benefited from her contributions and life. Sad, senseless loss.

Katherine Janness, Rachel Morin, the recent attack in Tacoma, WA on a trail... now this. It is getting dangerous out there for those of us that like to walk and run. MOO

And those of us who like to golf.

Good points.
Esp. re. the cameras !

Also, was she receiving any unwanted texts or calls ?
And did anyone know her jogging schedule ?

I'm worried that the perp entered the wooded area on foot, out of sight from cameras.

I really, really hope there is video though.
