Mystery of body found inside a garbage truck deepens after cops launch investigation into woman's chilling death
THE body of a woman found at a waste facility early Thursday morning has been identified by the Amarillo Police Department.
Linda Michelle Mesza-Ray, 42, was found dead inside a garbage truck at the COA Solid Waste Collection Station in Texas.
According to investigators, Mesza-Ray's body was inside the dumpster part of the truck.
How her body ended up inside the truck remains under investigation and it's possible it was picked up for disposal, cops said.
Authorities are now trying to determine where she was originally loaded into the vehicle.
"We’re going back looking at the logs where this came from, talking with the driver, and going to be looking if there is any video and we’ll go from there on what we can determine," Cpl Jeb Hilton said.

The woman could have been a victim of foul play or may have even been asleep while inside the dumpster, officers said.
Her body was transported from Amarillo to the medical examiner in Lubbock for an autopsy.
