The woman found deceased in her car near Preston Avenue on Monday, January 3 has been identified. She is 27-year-old Courtney T. Chambers. According to Charlottesville Police Lt. Ronnie Roberts, Chambers body was discovered in  her vehicle in the parking lot of Oxford Hill Apartments at the corner of Madison and Preston avenues by a passerby. She’d failed to return to work from her lunch break. Medical testing on the body is underway, and in an emailed statement, Roberts says there were no signs of trauma.

    I only saw about fifty cops mucking around the scene acting like it was the biggest thing they had ever seen. Thank god foul play isn’t suspected, cause Barney Fife and the other deputies sure contaminated the scene.

    I get a chuckle out of people make fun of people who are seen in public places being judgmental and all.

    I’d love to follow YOU on your job and see how “dumb” you are too.

    Please have some class and point the finger at yourself before you point it at others.

    Whatever happened to condolences to the family for the loss of somebody’s daughter/granddaughter/sister, somebody’s friend, girlfriend/wife, etc. Somebody died prematurely, in the middle of going about their day, totally unexpected. But as usual the body shells masquerading as humans that lurk about in our world can only make jokes and find ways to criticize and poke fun at something.

    Condolences to the family and friends for their premature loss.

    Sad, condolences to the family.

    I have no information on Ms. Chambers’ death.
    Does anyone?
    “No signs of trauma” almost sounds like a prelude to “Ms. Chambers died of heart failure.”

    I think we have a corrupt law enforcement here in the city, although i think the county is far worse off.

    Not a lot of news on this, but I believe this is her:

    Sad story.
