The Doña Ana County Sheriff’s Office said a passer-by found the body of 34-year-old Caroline Frances Cherry on Oct. 15 in a desert area commonly referred to as the “Quarry,” south of Las Cruces and west of Mesquite, New Mexico.
On Thursday, the sheriff’s office (DASO), with assistance from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, released photos of Cherry entering the U.S. from Mexico about 5:45 p.m. Oct. 8 at the Paso Del Norte Bridge in Downtown El Paso, Texas. The pictures show Cherry in workout clothes carrying two bags as she makes her way through customs.
