A Texas man who had recently finished a solicitation diversion program is behind bars after he allegedly strangled a sex worker, stuffed her body in his trunk and dumped her in a grassy field because he thought she would never be found.

Her remains were eventually discovered by landscapers who were cutting grass in the 100 block of Subsea Lane just outside of Houston on Oct. 2 at around 8 a.m., the Harris County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release. Investigators determined the woman, later identified as 29-year-old Cortney Hall, had been there for several days. Detectives reviewed street cameras which showed a man drive up to the area and dump Hall’s body. Officers were able to identify the car through traffic cameras.
