Dismembered human remains found in a plastic tub and several garbage bags were identified as a 26-year-old Georgia woman, according to authorities.
The Smyrna Police Department on Friday identified her as Shanteria Mosley, who was known to friends and family as "KT."
Police investigating a homicide said the apparent remains of a woman were discovered inside garbage bags hidden in the trunk of a car on Friday.
"One garbage bag was pulled tightly showing the outline of a body part," police said in a news release, adding that investigators contacted the Cobb County Medical Examiner's Office.
Once a medical examiner arrived, the bags were opened and body parts were found inside, police said.
The news comes after police said a female's torso was found in a plastic tub at an apartment.
Kingston Bradley, 18, who was already charged with concealing the death of another person, will also be charged with malice murder in connection with the case, police said.
Mosley's aunt, Michelle Weaver, told 11Alive that Mosely left home to make DoorDash deliveries the morning of her death. Weaver said when relatives were unable to reach her, they started tracking her phone and searching for her.
She also expressed frustration with police.
"I just want our story to get out, and I just want Smyrna police to have the correct facts where it all began at, what time it began, the time frame," Weaver told the media outlet. "Don't say y'all found her. Her family found her. Y'all didn't do nothing. Y'all left us. You guys left us to do it ourselves."
Police did not reveal how Mosley died.
"We are still investigating this case and following up on all leads," police said.
