FARMINGTON, Mo. (AP) Two eastern Missouri men are accused of dumping the body of a woman who apparently died of an accidental drug overdose on a rural highway.
The body of Mikayla Jones, 18, of Farmington, was identified Friday after she was found the day before in Washington County.
Jones was last seen May 4 or May 5 at a home near Belgrade.
Washington County Sheriff Zach Jacobsen said Jones died of a suspected accidental drug overdose and her body was left on Highway M between Caledonia and Irondale.
Andrew Franklin Pierce, of Blackwell, and Ethan Civey, of Belgrade, have been charged with tampering with physical evidence and abandonment of a corpse.
An 18-year-old Farmington, Missouri woman who was last seen in early May and was found dead last Thursday in a wooded area off of Highway M died of what police believe was an "accidental drug overdose." Now the sheriff is speaking out against the "cowards" accused of leaving Mikayla Jones for dead, abandoning her on the side of the road instead of calling for help.
