The body of missing woman Crystal Uptain has been located in an Arizona landfill, and now authorities are investigating her death as a homicide. Multiple updates have flooded media headlines since the discovery, but one important question remains. If Crystal was murdered, then who killed her?
Crystal Uptain vanished from her Arizona home sometime around November 25th, but her body was located earlier this month. The Sun reports that the 38-year-old woman’s neighbors noticed strange activity at her home
before her body was located. However, thorough information about this strange activity hasn’t been clarified.
Police confirm that the body of Crystal Uptain showed evidence of injuries — injuries which may have caused the once-missing woman’s death. Little is being shared about her life leading up to her murder, but neighbors of the Arizona woman say that she suffered from some health problems and did not leave her home often. She shared the home with a man identified in media reports as her boyfriend — the person who reported Uptain missing back in November.
No arrests have been made in the death of Crystal Uptain, and authorities haven’t released the names of any suspects or persons of interest — if they have any. Meanwhile, loved ones of the murdered woman are seeking answers — and justice.
