What happened?
In early July, Sheridan didn't show up for work. Her worried mother contacted the Stark County Sheriff's Office.
Investigators determined there were signs of a crime scene inside her Plain Township apartment.
"Evidence of foul play was discovered. Detectives determined that Sheridan was murdered inside the apartment," Sheriff George Maier said during a July news conference.
However, she wasn't there. Sanitation workers later found her body in a garbage can in Mother Goose Land Park in Canton.
