Investigators located remains believed to be Rachael Lynn Madison on Dec. 2 near Knoxville, TN. Madison was seen last at 1:30 p.m. Nov. 27 near her family's home in Ormond-by-the-Sea. Special Agents from the FBI Jacksonville Division have been working in conjunction with the Volusia County Sheriff's Office to locate her.
On the morning of Dec. 2, Jarvis Madison, Rachael Madison's estranged husband, was located in Louisville, Kentucky by the U.S. Marshals Service Fugitive Task Force, and taken into custody on an arrest warrant issued by the Indiana State Police. Information gathered in the subsequent investigation led teams of investigators from the FBI Louisville Division and the Indiana State Police to a remote area off I-40 where they later found the remains.
Evidence gathered at the site is currently being processed to confirm the remains are that of Rachael Lynn Madison. The FBI has notified Rachael Madison's family of the findings.
"The thoughts and prayers of everyone in the FBI are with Ms. Madison's family, and we remain committed to finding answers through our ongoing investigation," said Charles P. Spencer, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Jacksonville Division. "We appreciate the assistance of our law enforcement partners including the Volusia County Sheriff's Office, FBI Knoxville, FBI Louisville, U.S. Marshals Service Fugitive Task Force and the Indiana State Police."
As this remains an ongoing investigation, no additional information or comment will be provided by the FBI at this time.
