That bin was then collected by a lorry – with cops searching for her body at the landfill site where the truck’s contents were burned. Investigators have now found skeletal remains and have sent them to the Institute of Legal Medicine in <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/where/palma/" rel="nofollow"> Palma </a> to confirm whether they are Medina’s. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> Medina’s mobile phone data was used to reconstruct her movements. The student was last seen just before midnight on October 2 when she left friends she was drinking with. Police believe she was waiting for a bus around midnight to head home to Palma Nova, southwest of the main city. Cops have been able to rule out that she ever got on the bus, instead thinking she climbed into the bin. They believe she could have dropped her phone in with the trash, climbed in after it, and fell unconscious. Tragically, a witness was waiting for a bus shortly before her death and noticed her handbag placed neatly&nbsp;next&nbsp;to the container but thought nothing more of it. Just after midnight on October 3, a lorry collected the rubbish bin with Medina inside. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> The witness, who was at the bus stop at 12:12 am, reportedly did not hear her call for help or scream before the binmen arrived at 12:27 am to empty the bin. The investigating homicide cops say it is “impossible to survive inside a rubbish truck”. The truck, loaded with seven tonnes of rubbish, delivered its load at 2am where the mobile phone gave its last ping. National Police have since been searching through 15,000 tonnes of waste in the Son Reus incinerator plant. Cops’ hypothesis is that the alcohol Medina had drunk mixed with her medication, causing her to lose consciousness. One pal’s mother said she was doing “everything I can” to help find Medina. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> Natalia Rodríguez said: “My daughter Malén was a close friend of Agostina’s sister and, as it is normal, that she also had links with her, despite the fact that Malén was a little older.” <h3 class="article-boxout__headline"> Missing mum-of-three, 45, who suddenly disappeared tragically found dead under pile of rubbish in garden </h3><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=3zyLqR_0wFbw7Bf00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=3zyLqR_0wFbw7Bf00" width="620" height="413" > By Ethan Singh, News Reporter <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> A MUM-of-three who suddenly disappeared was found dead under a pile of rubbish in a garden, an inquest heard. Kelly Louise Randall, 45, was last seen on May 3, 2022, and her partner reported her missing two days later on May 5. Cops launched a search for the mum, but she was initially categorised as a low-risk missing person, despite her being a wheelchair user due to a leg amputation. Six days after her disappearance, her risk level was upgraded to medium, prompting police to search her Swansea home, check local hospitals and&nbsp;review&nbsp;CCTV footage. Upon learning that Kelly’s&nbsp;wheelchair&nbsp;had been spotted outside a property in Clas y Deri, in the Waunarlwydd area of Swansea, the police concentrated their search efforts there. Alfred Millman, the homeowner, allowed officers into his property where they found a wheelchair in one of the bedrooms and blood stains on a jumper, mattress, bed sheet, and bedframe. A mound of rubbish and debris at the back of the Welsh property caught the attention of additional officers called to the scene. Amongst the debris, an officer spotted clothing, a trainer, and what seemed to be a human arm. Kelly’s body was tragically discovered and Mr Millman was promptly arrested on suspicion of her murder. However, DC Minto told the inquest that there was “no evidence found to suggest that Kelly’s death was suspicious”. <figure class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_12718958"><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=1Fy0hu_0wFbw7Bf00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=1Fy0hu_0wFbw7Bf00" width="883" height="960" ><figcaption class="wp-caption-text">She had been visiting friends and was trying to return home </figcaption> Solarpix </figure><figure class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_12718960"><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=17MZwS_0wFbw7Bf00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=17MZwS_0wFbw7Bf00" width="960" height="680" ><figcaption class="wp-caption-text">Medina lived in Palma Nova on Majorca </figcaption> Solarpix </figure></div></body>
