NEW DETAILS REVEALED IN CASE OF MISSING GRANDMA FOUND IN DITCH NEAR LAS VEGAS AIRPORT

New details have emerged about the final known moments of a 63-year-old New York grandmother whose disappearance in Las Vegas ended in a heartbreaking discovery near Harry Reid International Airport.

Alisa Goods, a grandmother of five, traveled to Las Vegas to visit a friend before disappearing on Aug. 8. Twelve days later, her body was discovered in a drainage ditch near an airport parking area.

Authorities have now revealed surveillance footage that appears to show what happened shortly before her disappearance.

SURVEILLANCE VIDEO CAPTURES HER FINAL MOMENTS

According to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, security footage from Aug. 8 showed Goods near the airport.

Police said the footage captured her falling down an embankment, getting back up and then collapsing.

After that, investigators observed no further movement.

Her location could not be seen from the street, which may help explain why she remained undiscovered for days despite the area being close to the airport.

The footage has become an important part of the investigation as authorities work to reconstruct Goods’ final hours.

SHE HAD DISAPPEARED AFTER LEAVING A FRIEND’S HOME

Goods had traveled from New York to Las Vegas to visit a friend.

According to reports, she left the friend’s home on Aug. 8 to go shopping and visit a nearby CVS.

Her disappearance was reported to authorities after she failed to return.

Her family and friends were left increasingly concerned as days passed without any confirmed contact.

The case became even more puzzling when relatives said they began receiving messages from Goods’ phone asking for money, gas and Bitcoin.

Those messages raised concerns among her loved ones and prompted questions about whether someone else may have had access to her phone.

BODY FOUND BY A HOMELESS MAN

Twelve days after Goods disappeared, a homeless man discovered her body in a drainage ditch near the airport.

He alerted nearby parking attendants, who contacted police.

The location was reportedly difficult to see from the surrounding street, consistent with investigators’ explanation that the surveillance footage showed Goods entering the area but that her position could not be seen from the roadway.

The discovery brought an end to the search for Goods but left her family with painful questions.

CAUSE OF DEATH HAS NOT BEEN RELEASED

Authorities have not publicly disclosed Goods’ cause or manner of death.

The surveillance footage may provide investigators with important information about what happened immediately before she entered the ditch, but officials have not announced a final conclusion about how she died.

At this point, the available evidence does not establish that another person was responsible for her death.

Investigators continue to examine the circumstances surrounding her disappearance and the discovery of her body.

FAMILY RECEIVES OUTPOURING OF SUPPORT

Goods’ family has been devastated by the loss.

Her niece, Alana Calloway, expressed heartbreak over what happened and thanked members of the public and the media who helped bring attention to the search.

Goods’ daughter, Kristen, also launched a fundraiser to help cover funeral and related expenses.

By Aug. 27, the campaign had raised more than $17,000.

For her family, the money is secondary to the loss of a mother, grandmother and loved one who had traveled to Las Vegas expecting a visit with a friend.

A CASE STILL FILLED WITH QUESTIONS

The newly revealed surveillance footage provides investigators with a clearer picture of Goods’ final known movements.

But major questions remain.

Why did she end up near the airport?

What caused her to fall down the embankment?

Why did messages continue to come from her phone after she disappeared?

And what ultimately caused her death?

For now, authorities have not provided definitive answers.

What is known is that a 63-year-old grandmother who traveled to Las Vegas for a visit disappeared on Aug. 8 and was found 12 days later in a drainage ditch near the airport.

As investigators continue reviewing the evidence, her family is left grieving while waiting for answers about what happened during the final hours of Alisa Goods’ life.
