Authorities have confirmed that the body discovered inside a suitcase in Seattle this week belongs to 37-year-old Shannon Marie Caslin Reeder, who was reported missing in 2023. Reeder was last seen in November of that year, and law enforcement officials are currently working to unravel the circumstances surrounding her disappearance and death.
The Washington State Patrol made the grim discovery in late September while clearing out a homeless encampment after detecting a strong odor emanating from the suitcase. According to updates from the WSP, Reeder was known to frequent the area, prompting detectives to collaborate with individuals familiar with her to establish a timeline of her activities leading up to her demise and the subsequent finding of her remains.
