DeKalb County missing woman's body found a mile from her home two years later

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.

Hermitage clinic for disabled patients set to close, cites loss of funding

I'm so thankful Robb Coles highlighted the Kamer Davis clinic in Hermitage and the hardship that may force its closure. The clinic provides care for patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities and there is no other place like it nearby. You can tell the staff is so passionate about the care they provide. I hope by shining the light on this, the right person can step in and make a difference.
