The remains discovered earlier this year in rural Tennessee have been determined to be a 20-year-old woman who was last seen departing the Gwinnett County jail last year.
Maury-Ange Faith Martinez, a 20-year-old woman, was reported missing from Gwinnett County on August 28, 2023. According to reports, she was last seen leaving the jail at 2:20 p.m.
On January 5, 2024, skeletal remains were discovered in a rural area of Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Hamilton County Medical Examiner’s Office has officially identified the remains as belonging to Martinez.
The cause of death was not disclosed by the M.E., and it remains unclear if foul play is suspected by investigators.
