MILWAUKEE -- The remains of the woman found in Racine County on Wednesday have been identified as Audrey Scott, a Milwaukee woman who had been missing since July 4.
Police say the incident is being investigated as a homicide, and there are several persons of interest in custody.
The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner conducted the autopsy.
Scott's mother, Carrie Scott-Haney, told TODAY'S TMJ4 in July that her daughter was out with her boyfriend on Water Street the night she went missing.
"There was a fight that broke out there between him and her, and then with her cousin," said Scott-Haney.
The day before was the last time they heard from her.
"After that everything is a mystery," said Scott-Haney.
Scott-Haney said the couple has a history of domestic violence.
"I begged her to leave him; he's pulled out guns on her before," Scott-Haney said. "She feared for her life."
Police say Scott wasn't reported missing until July 14. A witness told investigators Scott was seen that day near 92nd and Sheridan, but she wasn’t found.
Police say the case is still under investigation.
