BEAUFORT COUNTY, S.C. — Officials say the body of 19-year-old Mallory Beach was found in a Beaufort County marsh on Sunday, one week after the boat she was on crashed into a bridge.
The National Center For Missing and Endangered (NCME) says a boater in Beaufort County found a body in a marsh area near the Broad River Boat Landing on Sunday. The Beaufort County Coroner's Office confirmed the body was that of Mallory Beach of Hampton, SC, on Monday, NCME says.
