Case Disposition:
The Campbell County Sheriff’s Office announced that her body was discovered less than 2 miles from where she went missing Saturday. “The deceased body of Tami Sturgeon was located approximately 1.8 miles from where she was reported missing,” Campbell County Sheriff Scott Matheny said in a statement dispatched Thursday evening. “No foul play is suspected, and cause and manner of death will be determined by the Campbell County coroner.”
Summary:
Tami Lynn Sturgeon, a 55-year-old Gillette, Wyoming, woman went missing Saturday, March 23rd, in rugged terrain after a day of shed hunting with her husband south of Bishop Road in the Yellow Hammer Buttes. All that’s been recovered so far is Sturgeon’s missing phone, the very thing that led to her disappearance.
Vital Statistics
Circumstances of Disappearance:
According to her husband, Sturgeon believed her phone was missing, so they split up and searched in the Yellow Hammer Buttes area where they were shed hunting to find it, the Campbell County Sheriff’s Office reports. Sturgeon’s husband reported her missing around 7 p.m. Saturday, saying he hadn’t seen or heard from her for several hours, so he left the area to find a place to contact Campbell County Sheriff’s Office Dispatch.
Additional Details:
Campbell County Sheriff’s Office has used many techniques to locate her. The search has yielded some results, but not enough to locate Sturgeon. A shoe print and a cigarette butt were discovered during one sweep, both believed to have been left by Sturgeon, Seeman said. However, Seeman said those clues didn’t provide much information and did not significantly assist the search effort.
