I'm kind of surprised that any media outlet at all reporting it. The more legit outlets would ignore a story like this unless there's evidence of foul play, a traffic accident, or the discovery of the body was high profile enough where thousands of people saw a large emergency presence.

It doesn't really sound like this checks off any of those boxes. I'm guess GoLocal was just creeping the Instagram/Facebook of someone who made the initial "missing" post or something.
