Fingerprints have identified the woman, although investigators are not releasing her name pending notification of next of kin.

An autopsy was conducted, but it did not reveal a cause or manner of death.

"There just wasn't any obvious sign of what killed this woman when the autopsy was done," Monroe County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Becky Herrin said. "It wasn't due to decomposition. I believe it was due to just nothing obvious being available."

The investigation is ongoing.
