(ChurchLeaders) After a search for a missing pastor’s wife entered its third week, a new discovery on Tuesday brought sad news to the woman’s family. The remains of Marilane Carter, a wife and mother of three small children, is believed to have been found in a shipping container near the area she was last heard from.
Marilane’s uncle was the one who found her vehicle inside a shipping container in a field off Interstate 55. It appears she drove the vehicle into the shipping container. The uncle found a body inside the vehicle and called the police. Marilane’s family and volunteers had been searching that area since that was the last cell phone ping they had.
