Two weeks later on Friday, October 24, 2008 at 11:08 AM, a body was discovered near the access road to Rock Creek Cabins, 2829 Highway 67, Camanche, Iowa, and positively identified as that of Marburger.

The Clinton County Sheriff’s Office, the Camanche Police Department, the Clinton Police Department and the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation are working to collect evidence, and the investigation is ongoing.

The Iowa State Medical Examiner’s Office in Ankeny conducted an autopsy two days after Marburger’s body was found, but the cause of her death is still undetermined, said Clinton County Sheriff’s Sgt. Steve Cundiff. (The Clinton Herald, Oct. 13, 2009)

Alysia Marburger's car

Alysia Marburger's 2002 Hyundai was found on 11th Ave. South in Clinton before her body was discovered.

Miss Marburger lived with her parents at 608 River Street in Sabula, Iowa. She was the mother of a 10-month-old child and attended Clinton Community College.

John Marburger said he last saw his daughter when she left the family home the morning of Oct. 6 and headed for school at Clinton Community College.

Investigators hope someone saw either Alysia or her car before her disappearance and will come forward with a lead.

Marburger drove a white 2002 4-door Hyundai Sonata with a University of Iowa license plate that read: MISSLEO. The rear passenger side tail light was broken out and had been taped, and there were scratches on the rear passenger door. Cundiff said the vehicle was found on 11th Avenue South in Clinton before her body was discovered.

The Marburger family has offered a $5,000 reward for any information in the case, and tips may be made anonymously.
