WESTVILLE – The police came to Stefani's Cut Rate Drive In on Thursday to tell DeAnne Tuggle that her only child was dead.
The body of Marlaina Nicole Reed, 17, was found strangled in a cardboard box on the northwest side of Chicago on Jan. 21, 2007, according to the Chicago Tribune. It took police more than a year to identify her remains because her body had been badly beaten and left in the cold for so long, the paper reported.
