Education
editJamisha graduated from Heritage High School in 2013. She had plans to go to The University of Maryland to study law.[3][4]
Disappearance and death
editGilbert was found dead in a briar patch near Megginson Cemetery on December fourth. Crews, who scoured the area for days after she disappeared, used chainsaws to reach her body in the heavily wooded area.[5] She was naked when discovered, yet there was no evidence of sexual assault.[6] She had small amounts of marijuana in her system; the drug likely contributed to death, although the degree to which marijuana contributed to death is uncertain. She was covered in scratches, most likely from a car accident which happened moments prior to her death, in which her car crashed into a guardrail at the intersection of Concord Turnpike and Winston Ridge Road.[7][8][9] The main cause of death was listed as hypothermia.[10]
