Human remains found last summer in Butler County have been identified as a missing woman.

Butler County Coroner Jim Akers tells KWOC News that in June of 2023, human remains were located by a farmer in rural Butler County.

After an 8 month investigation, the remains were identified as Amiee Rose Ross, who had been reported missing from Poplar Bluff in May of 2023.
