What Happened To Vanessa Smallwood?

New Jersey woman who disappeared six years ago was found in the Salem River.
A New Jersey woman's skeletal remains were found in a crushed car pulled out of a river Thursday.

Six years ago, Vanessa Smallwood was reported missing after she left the laundromat. Her family reported her missing back in February 2014.

Diving contractors who were working in the river, looking for underwater obstructions that could interfere with shipping, found the crushed car with the remains of the mother of three in Salem River.

The flatten car was pulled out the water. The New Jersey State Police determined the remains were that of the missing Vanessa Smallwood.

Her Chrysler Town & Country minivan was found in the river.



Smallwood was at the cleaners with her husband. As he went into the building to drop off clothes, he found that the vehicle went missing.

She was said to have suffered from mental issues. She was on disability from her contract job at the Philadelphia International Airport at the time of her disappearance.
The law determined that there's no foul play in the disappearance.
Years ago, the law pinged the woman's phone near Clayton. They also found that no one used her credit card or debit cards since her disappearance.

It's unclear on how long the car had been in the river.

One of her sons, Brandon took to social media to say that he was "messed all the way up" over his mother's death. He added, "At least I know you aren't here to suffer anymore in this destructive world we live in."
