AUGUSTA, Maine (WGAN) Maine State Police have released the likely identity of a woman who was found dead in a Water Street apartment in Augusta on Tuesday.

There are no obvious signs of foul play and the death likely took place in the past two weeks.
Detectives tracked down the man who rents the apartment and he confirmed that Hadley had his permission to stay there while he was staying elsewhere.
