The remains of a South Carolina woman missing since September were found in Hartsville last week

The Darlington County Coroner’s Office on Monday identified the remains, which were found on December 4, as Shamra Hope Cassidy Felkel, 49. The coroner ruled the death a homicide, WPDE reported.

WBTW reported that Daniel Peele was arrested that same day and charged with murder, kidnapping, and obstructing justice. Peel appeared in court on Tuesday on the kidnapping and obstruction charges and was denied bond. He is set to appear on the murder charge on January 22.

Arrest warrants say Peele strangled Feldel and dumped her body in a well.

Felkel was last seen on September 25 but not reported missing until October 7.

Kasey Wolfe, Felkel’s daughter, said last week that she’d gotten a tip to search an area near her mother’s property in Hartsville, WPDE said. She asked a family friend to check out the area, and that friend found the remains.
