Kentucky State Police say that the body of Harkins, 43, was located Monday in a shallow creek in Knox County.

The sheriff’s department towed in a vehicle belonging to Ms. Harkings that was located at the end of Ed Harp Lane on January 7, reported Lex18.

KSP is investigating when she went missing and how her body ended up 150 yards from where her vehicle was located.
