Renville's death is being treated as a homicide. She was found in an open gravel lot and her body had been wrapped in a blanket and carpet padding.

Renville lived in the northeast Kansas City area for the past two years. She was a member of the Sisseton-Wahpeton Sioux Tribe, according to a local resident who emailed Indianz.Com.
