"Missing Barnstead Woman Ashley Turcotte Found Dead After Large Search Effort"

Ashley Turcotte, who had been missing since January, was found dead in the woods off New Road in Barnstead, near where her car was found abandoned. Authorities stated that her death does not appear suspicious and there is no sign of foul play. The search for Turcotte was hindered by a snowstorm following her disappearance, but recent warmer weather allowed search teams to comb through the area. With no signs of criminal activity, the investigation is now in the hands of the medical examiner's office.
