A day after 16-year-old Trinity Backus was reported missing from northern California, the Nevada County Sheriff’s Office reported she was tragically found dead not far from where she was last seen Wednesday night.

In a Facebook post, the sheriff’s office said search and rescue teams located the missing teen’s body shortly after 2 p.m. on Friday.

She was found approximately half a mile north of her aunt’s residence, which was in a “very heavily wooded river drainage area,” the sheriff’s office said.

NCSO said there is “nothing suspicious” about her death at this point.
Backus’ cause of death is unknown, but the coroner’s division will be conducting an investigation and an autopsy.
