The remains of a missing Oregon woman have been found in a remote and wooded area about 150 miles from where she was last seen more than a month ago.

Eugene Police Detective Jed McGuire said on Monday that Cheryl Hart's body was found by a search party organized by her family.

McGuire says Hart's boyfriend, Jeremy Milutin, will be charged with her death.

The 35-year-old mother of three from St. Helens was last seen with Milutin on Aug. 4 in Eugene, Oregon.

He has been in custody since Aug. 5 for auto theft in Columbia County and was named a person of interest in Hart's disappearance three weeks ago.

"It's sad that this is the end result. We were always hoping that Cheryl might be alive but that was not the case," said McGuire.

Milutin was pulled over for driving a stolen, 1994 Buick Century, but would not tell police where Hart was. He only said, he had dropped her off. But as police continued their investigation, they discovered surveillance photos of Milutin, alone, in a store buying what appeared to be a gallon of bleach.

Court records list no defense attorney for Milutin, who hasn't been arraigned.
