ST. FRANCIS, Wis. — Emily Rogers, the 23-year-old woman last seen on April 26 on West Becher Street in Milwaukee, was found dead in St. Francis Thursday afternoon, according to the Milwaukee Police Department (MPD).
Multiple suspects are in custody related to the investigation, which remains open and ongoing, police say.
The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office says an autopsy will be performed Friday.
"Of course we are saddened and heartbroken about our daughter, but on the other hand, we are just as happy that she was located and we'll be able to bring her home," Emily's father, Terry Rogers, said on Thursday. "We'll have some closure that way."
"I want to take this time to thank Milwaukee PD for everything they have done and everything they continue to do," he continued. "I want to thank all the volunteers and the community that has stepped forward and the countless hours they spent every night."
"She was a loving mother, she was a loving daughter, she always looked for the positive in life," said Terry Rogers.
