According to the Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office, the body of missing Princeton University student Misrach Ewunetie was discovered on campus on Thursday. According to a statement from Mercer County prosecutor Angelo Onofri and Kenneth Strother Jr., the school’s assistant vice president for public safety, her corpse was discovered on the facility’s grounds at around 1 p.m., near tennis courts.
The cause and manner of death will be determined by an autopsy performed by the Middlesex County Medical Examiner, according to the statement. Her death “does not appear suspicious or criminal in origin” and there were “no signs of injury.” The institution described the death as an “unthinkable tragedy” in a statement.

The institution added, “Our hearts go out to her family, her friends, and the many others who knew and loved her.” “We are arranging a gathering for students to remember Misrach together.” According to her brother, Ewunetie’s family claimed earlier on Thursday that they had been “kept in the dark” by the authorities.
He added that they are frantic for information and trying to put together a timeline of her locations. Six days after Ewunetie, 20, vanished, university officials stepped up their search for the junior. Her elder brother, Universe Ewunetie, said her family was especially concerned that she skipped a meeting on Saturday to discuss her citizenship.
Before the body was found on Thursday, he spoke with CNN via phone and referred to the prosecutor’s office and campus authorities, saying, “There’s no constant update or connection with us.” We’re being kept in the dark, really.
Authorities reportedly warned Universe Ewunetie that the inquiry would take some time. We don’t have time, so that’s one thing we don’t have, he added. The prosecutor’s office and the university’s public safety department have been contacted by CNN for comment regarding Universe Ewunetie’s allegations.
Student’s Brother Says She Was a ‘beautiful Soul’
Bloodhounds were used by law enforcement to follow Ewunetie’s scent from the dorm to Lake Carnegie on campus of Princeton. As a result, investigators investigated the lake and the neighborhood. Earlier on Thursday, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy tweeted that he had spoken to many law enforcement agencies about the missing youngster. Later, Murphy tweeted that the news of her passing left him “heartbroken.”
Universe, Ewunetie’s brother, praised his sister for having a “sweet, lovely spirit,” being a “wonderful listener,” and caring about people “beyond herself.” Family members “were not especially happy.” Despite the fact that Ewunetie chose Princeton over her Ohio family home, they “didn’t want to discourage her,” according to the brother who, along with other family members, was posting flyers about his missing sister on the New Jersey campus.
It was a “nightmare I cannot wake up from,” he said. According to Universe Ewunetie, their father tried calling his sister on Friday but was unable, so he presumed she was otherwise occupied. Calls and SMS started to be answered on Saturday, but there was still no response. By Sunday, calls were going directly to voicemail. Her housemates, according to her family, were able to recall seeing her asleep in her dorm room on Friday morning.
Ewunetie was last seen Friday
According to the university, Ewunetie was last seen near a residential building on the New Jersey campus at around three in the morning. Her disappearance was reported by the institution on Monday, and anyone with information was requested to get in touch with the Department of Public Safety.
In a Wednesday morning update to the community, the university said that there was a heightened law enforcement presence on campus that included the deployment of helicopters, drones, and “watercraft.”
The president of one of the school’s 11 eating clubs informed the student newspaper The Daily Princetonian that Ewunetie was volunteering there on Thursday night. Ewunetie was performing housekeeping duties at the Terrace Club while live music was being played, according to student leaders who spoke to the newspaper.
When Irene Gakwa vanished, she was residing with her boyfriend in Gillette, Wyoming. On February 24, she made her last video call to her father. Misrach offered to fill in for one of our members who had previously signed up for duty on Thursday night because they couldn’t make it to the event.
Misrach and the other members on duty left for the night after the club closed and all of the duty obligations had been completed, the club reported to the newspaper. In a statement provided to CNN on Thursday, club president Alexander Moravcsik said that Misrach “was a beloved member of the Terrace community and a kind, caring spirit.”
The club is in mourning following this terrible event, and Moravcsik’s statement stated, “Our sympathies are with her family, who must be going through the unfathomable.” According to a statement from the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland, Ewunetie was a graduate of the Villa Angela-St. Joseph High School.
Misrach Ewunetie, a former honor student and member of the class of 2020, was discovered dead today on the campus of Princeton University, according to a statement from Deacon James Armstrong. “The Villa Angela-St. Joseph High School community is profoundly saddened at the news of Misrach Ewunetie’s passing,” he said.
The loss of Ewunetie, a student in the class of 2020, was described as “devastating” by the nonprofit organization Minds Matter Cleveland. The organization declared, “We hold her family and all others who loved her near to our hearts.”
