A body was found in Perry County, PA with similar features to that of missing 48 year old Elaine M. Pierson.
A woman’s body with “similar features” to those of a Perry County woman missing more than a week was found yesterday about three miles from the missing woman’s home, state police at Newport said.
Police would not say if the body was Elaine M. Pierson, 48, of Trout Lane, Rye Twp. Pierson was reported missing Dec. 29 and hasn’t been heard from since Dec. 27. (Patriot News)
UPDATE: Officials have now confirmed that the body found was that of missing 48 year old Elaine M. Pierson. They are awaiting dental records for final ID. It is believed that she was a victim of a homicide.
Officials have confirmed that the body found nine days after Elaine M. Pierson was reported missing is the victim of a homicide, though positive identification of the body is still waiting on dental records.
Perry County Coroner Michael Shalonis, who had been Pierson’s neighbor since she built her home in the wooded mountainous area of Rye Township about nine years ago, said he believes the body of the white woman in her late 40s, found just three miles from Pierson’s home, is Pierson. (The Mercury)

Authorities continue to question a man Ark City Police Chief Sean Wallace described as a “groupie” of the College’s danceline team, of which Jodi was a member.
The man is in custody on charges unrelated to Sanderholm’s disappearance, Wallace said Sunday afternoon. Police discovered an arrest warrant for the man when they questioned him about the Sanderholm case, he said.
Some people close to Sanderholm suspect the man is involved in her vanishing, Wallace said. But there is no evidence linking him to the disappearance and Wallace asked that his name not be made public to protect his rights and his safety. (Arkcity.net)
