SMITHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Two years later, the body of a missing woman in DeKalb County was found last weekend by two hunters in a wooded area.

Brittany Miller, 31, went missing two and a half years ago. Her body was discovered in an area off of Man Hill Road in the Snow Hill community, Sheriff Patrick Ray said.

Miller went missing on July 4, 2022.

There were several search efforts in the community around her home, with no trace of Miller. But her body was found more than a mile across Highway 70 from her home.

The state medical examiner confirmed the identity through medical records and Miller's family has been notified. There is no word at this point on how Miller died.

Now, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation will handle the death investigation.

Nashville music school offering lessons for just 50 cents for families with limited income

Music lessons for just 50 cents! A Nashville music school has been providing that to area students for over 40 years including for the city's current mayor. As a child, I always wanted to take piano lessons. I was able to for about 6 months but had to stop due to family finances. I would have loved to have had access to a program like this at the W. O. Smith Music School.
