A search party located the body of Murry Foust, a 22-year-old transgender student at Northern Kentucky University, weeks after Foust disappeared in late April. Covington Police reported that they do not suspect foul play and that the Campbell County Coroner’s Office will determine the cause of death. Police said they continue investigating the circumstances. Foust’s family expressed condolences and said they hope the discovery brings closure and comfort. The family announced plans to establish an art scholarship fund in Foust’s name, using donations and proceeds from the sale of Foust’s work to support other art students. Foust was scheduled to graduate earlier in the month, and friends reported that Foust left for class on April 27 but never arrived.
"Covington Police do not suspect foul play. Police say a cause of death will be determined by the Campbell County Coroner's Office. Police said they are continuing to investigate the circumstances of the death."
"“We extend our deepest condolences to the Foust family and their loved ones during this incredibly difficult time. While we are saddened by this loss, we hope this development can provide the family with some answers and a measure of closure,” wrote Covington Police Capt. Justin Bradbury in a press release."
"“Thank you to everyone in the community who has supported our family through this difficult time. By now, you have likely learned that [Murry] has been found and is no longer with us. While our hearts are broken and this is not the outcome we were hoping for, we can only pray that finding them provides closure and comfort to everyone who is hurting,” the statement, posted by Jennifer Heise Foust, reads."
"“We are establishing an art scholarship fund in their name to honor their love of art,” the statement reads. “Any donations or proceeds from the sale of Murry's work will be used to support other art students in the community.”"
