      SAN ANTONIO — Garden Ridge police confirmed at 3:45 p.m. Thursday that a body found in Garden Ridge earlier in the afternoon was that of Leanne Bearden, the woman who had been missing for more than three weeks.

      Investigators said a man discovered the body at 12:18 p.m. in a wooded area behind his home.

      Police were able to confirm it was Bearden by her backpack and ID. Investigators would not say whether they were looking for a suspect in Bearden’s death.

      The body was found in the 21600 block of Fairview Circle, just a few blocks from Bearden’s in-laws’ home, where she was last seen before going for a run, family members said.

      A man trimming trees across the street reportedly saw Bearden leave the home January 17. Garden Ridge police say they interviewed that man and verified the time she left the home by herself, and that everything appeared fine.

      “We just don’t know,” said Leanne’s father-in-law. “We will stick with what we know until we know something differently. And what we know is she walked out of the driveway and walked up the street and that’s all we know.” …

      Greg Pyles, CEO of Texas Search and Rescue, said the area that Bearden’s body was found was not included in a large scale, 23-square-mile search that took place in Garden Ridge Jan. 25.

      Leanne was missing for almost a month. In that period of time … IN THE PROCESS OF ELIMINATION … was Josh considered a person of interest by investigators? Did Josh submit to a polygraph? If not; why not?

      I could be wrong but … it appears that the last known person CONFIRMED by LE spokespersons to have seen Leanne has been given a virtual pass.

      On January 25, 2014 … it was determined by investigators that Josh was not a suspect in the disappearance of his wife. Did Leanne’s husband submit to a polygraph.
