Florida police are investigating how a 32-year-old woman ended up dead in a Dollar Tree freezer.
Helen Massiell Garay Sanchez's naked body was found by an employee around 8 a.m. Sunday. Police do not suspect foul play in her death. According to NBC-6, Sanchez entered the store Saturday night before it closed and went to the freezer located in the back storage room.
Sanchez was not an employee of the store and was not known to the employee who found her. The station reported that police were interviewing family members to see if Sanchez had any mental health issues.
Sanchez was an anesthesiologist who specialized in congenital heart disease, according to a GoFundMe page set up for the family. She was originally from Nicaragua. "Her compassion, skill, and commitment to saving young lives defined both her career and her character," the page states.
Sanchez was described as a loving mother to her two children.
"Her strength, warmth, and unwavering love for her family will always be remembered," the page states.
"Her family's greatest wish is to bring her home to Nicaragua so she may receive a proper funeral and final resting place surrounded by loved ones...The family is currently raising funds to cover the costs of repatriation, transportation, and funeral services in Nicaragua," the page states.
