Fremont County Sheriff’s officials say Deputies responded at around 11:34-a.m. Wednesday, to the scene of a woman who had died at a residence in the 300 block of Washington Street, in Thurman. 18-year old Anna Marie Joy Courtier, of Tabor, was found dead inside the home.

At this point in the investigation, authorities say her death does not appear to be suspicious in nature, and no one is actively being sought in connection with her death. An autopsy was performed at the State Medical Examiner’s Office in Ankeny, but the cause and manner of death are being withheld, pending completion of the autopsy report.

The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation, Fremont County Sheriff’s Office and Iowa State Medical Examiner assisted with the investigation. Authorities say no other information will be released at this time.
