Colorado law enforcement agencies have launched an intensive search operation for a 14-year-old girl after making a grim discovery in remote woodland - the body of her mother, 59-year-old Melodee Buzzard.
The alarming case has triggered a multi-agency response across Fremont County, with authorities expressing 'extreme concern' for the welfare of Goddessa 'Goddie' Buzzard, who was last seen in the Wetmore area.

Fremont County Sheriff's Office has been working tirelessly alongside Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) agents, combing through the challenging terrain in search of crucial evidence that might lead them to the missing teenager.

Sheriff's spokesperson Allen Cooper emphasised the urgency of the situation, stating: 'We are treating this investigation with the highest priority. Our primary focus is locating Goddessa and ensuring her safety while we work to determine the circumstances surrounding her mother's death.'
Appeal for Public Assistance
Law enforcement officials are urging anyone with information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to come forward immediately. The public are asked to be particularly vigilant for any signs of the missing teenager in remote areas, roadside locations, or unusual activity in the region.
Anyone with information regarding Goddessa's whereabouts or who may have seen either individual in recent days is urged to contact Fremont County Sheriff's Office emergency lines without delay.
The investigation continues to develop as multiple agencies coordinate their efforts in this distressing case that has left a community anxiously awaiting answers.
