The body that Hutchinson PD asked for help identifying on July 3, 2025, has since been identified as Kimberly Barnes.
Barnes has been reported missing since July, 2024, and was identified through her dental records.
The police say they have found no indication of criminal activity from the autopsy and evidence.
“We extend our heartfelt condolences to Ms. Barnes’ family and friends during this difficult time,” Hutchinson Police Department Captain Dayton Gates said in a press release. “While hoping this confirmation provides them with some measure of closure.”
