CHARLTON COUNTY, Ga. — The Georgia Bureau of Investigation has confirmed that the body of missing Florida woman Jennifer Perry was found, and the man found driving her car will face new charges.

It appeared the woman’s body had been here for several days, Nassau County Sheriff’s Office says. Deputies couldn’t immediately identify it. The GBI says a medical examiner in Savannah will try to identify and determine cause of death @ActionNewsJax pic.twitter.com/hsPsJ3U87W
