Body Found Confirmed As Missing Mill Valley Woman

SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (KCBS)  -- A woman found dead last weekend on Mt. Tamalpais has been identified as an IRS agent who disappeared in December.

The Marin County coroner's office said Tuesday that Veronica Ruiz, 25, died of a gunshot wound to the head that appears to have been self-inflicted. The coroner said Ruiz apparently died Dec. 3.

The Mill Valley woman's body was found Sunday near a popular hiking area.

The coroner said Ruiz's service weapon was next to her body and her Treasury Department photo ID was found in her purse.

A co-worker said Ruiz had been upset over a breakup with her boyfriend when she went missing.
