LEOLA, Pa. (AP) An Amish woman has been laid to rest more than 10 months after she went missing while walking home from a church service, after which authorities say she was strangled and stabbed.
LNP newspaper reports that 69 horse-drawn buggies and a handful of vans and sport utility vehicles brought more than 100 people together Monday afternoon at the Myers Cemetery burial grounds, not far from where police say 18-year-old Linda Stoltzfoos was abducted.
The remains of Stoltzfoos were found last week buried along railroad tracks in the small town of Gap along Route 41 behind a business where 35-year-old Justo Smoker had worked, authorities said. Smoker was arrested shortly after her June 2020 disappearance and charged with kidnapping and false imprisonment, and later with homicide. ....

Nearly a year after an Amish teenager vanished, Lancaster County prosecutors on Thursday announced they found her body wrapped in a tarp and buried in a grave behind the former worksite of the man charged in her death.
Prosecutors filed homicide charges against Justo Smoker, 34, last year, even without the body of Linda Stoltzfoos, 18. The discovery and new evidence found by East Lampeter Township and Pennsylvania State Police is expected to provide a huge boost for prosecutors in the criminal case.
District Attorney Heather Adams said during a news conference Thursday that the body had not yet been forensically identified as Stoltzfoos, but based on initial observations and clothing found with the body: “We strongly believe and are confident in saying the remains are of 18-year-old Linda Stoltzfoos.” ....
