Maryland authorities on Monday released a sketch of a man they believe is responsible for the killing of a mother of five whose body was found on a hiking trail last summer.

Rachel Morin, 37, was reported missing Aug. 5, 2023, by her boyfriend, who told police she went for a run on the Ma & Pa Trail in Bel Air, Maryland, but never returned home.

Morins body was discovered by a volunteer search party the following day, and investigators reported that her death was a homicide.

Authorities suspected that Morin was attacked on a bend in the hiking trail and then pulled into a hidden drainage culvert, where her remains were found, Harford County sheriffs Capt. Andy Lane said on Mondays episode of Into the Sheriffs Spotlight, a podcast hosted by Harford County Sheriff Jeff Gahler.

Lane said he thought the killer stalked Morin and waited to attack her, but he did not think she was targeted. Authorities believe the killer was in the Bel Air area in the days before Morins death.
