Woman's Body Found In Buffalo River


On September 26, 1995, Grandma Doe was spotted by local fisherman in the Buffalo River fully dressed and with no signs of trauma to the body. Investigators report that Grandma Doe's cause of death was drowning. But according to authorities, this isn't the kind of river someone would pick to swim in. The current is too strong. Cops believe her body had only been floating in the river for about five or six hours before it was found.
