An Oregon mother who mysteriously vanished nearly two weeks ago while running errands has been found dead near her SUV in a remote, wooded area, authorities said.
The body of Jennifer Huston, a married mom of two young boys, was recovered in Sheridan, Ore. Tuesday morning, approximately 24 miles south of her Dundee home, said Newberg-Dundee Police.
There are no signs of foul play, said detectives.
The 38-year-old mother was last seen driving her 1999 Lexus SUV on the evening of July 24.
She told her husband she was going to run some errands before being captured on surveillance video at a gas station and Rite Aid convenience store while purchasing trail mix, Gatorade and a sleeping aid - items her husband called not out of the ordinary.
'It was a hot day. She grabbed a Gatorade. We do have trail mix in the house from time to time, and the sleep aids - I think it was just due to the fact that she had headaches for the last three days, and she just wanted a good night's sleep,' her emotional husband, Kallen Huston, said at a press conference on Friday while begging for her safe return home.
'She loves me. She loves the boys,' he said.
The vehicle was reported to police by the property's owner around 10:30 a.m.
The vehicle was found empty, but Huston's body was found a short distance away.
