Woman in Milwaukee found dead in garbage cart identified
A woman found dead in a garbage cart on Milwaukee’s west side Monday has been identified by the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s Office as 40-year-old Myeisha N. Moore.
Moore’s body was found around 10 a.m. Monday by a resident who did not know her in an alleyway behind a church and several residences on the 2000 block of North 38th Street, according to the Milwaukee Police Department and the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s Office in media releases this week.
Area residents told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel this week that they found Moore’s death and placement of her body concerning and unnerving.
The Journal Sentinel could not immediately reach family for comment.

We have a flower market with vendors selling fresh flowers, art, handmade goods, all of that really fun stuff. Then we also have Botanical Collective last year made this beautiful floral art installation that also acted as a photo op.
