UPDATE
The body of Leanne Bearden who went for a walk last month in Texas was recovered in Garden Ridge, TX after a month-long-search. Her devastated family wrote a Facebook statement, thanking everyone for the support during the search efforts.
Shockingly online reports say Barden who was wearing the same backpack as when she vanished may have committed suicide.
According to the NYDailynews, it is not clear what could have caused her to become distressed and ran off from her family. Police has not ruled out foul play until an autopsy is conducted.
Our prayers are with her family, during this difficult time.
