The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD) confirmed to Fox News Digital that the body of Tara Capps, 36, was discovered Sunday inside a storage container in a wooded area on the city’s south side.

“It’s heartbreaking. I don’t want anyone to go through this,” Capps’ mother, Virginia Summers, told FOX59.
Summers said Capps was her oldest daughter and that her identity was confirmed by fingerprints.
“She should never have had that done. Anyone who would do that is just a monster. It’s totally unjust,” Summers told FOX59.

“I just hope they find whoever did this. Nobody deserves to go through this,” Summers told FOX 59. “I won’t stop. I don’t care if it takes 10 years, 20 years. I won’t stop until I’m dead. I won’t stop until justice is served. I won’t stop.”
