   A 24-year-old New York woman with reported depression and   
   anxiety issues was identified by a medical examiner Thursday as   
   the person whose body -- bound at the hands and feet -- was   
   discovered earlier in the week stuffed into a large red suitcase   
   ditched on a roadside in an affluent Connecticut town.   
      
   Valerie Reyes, 24, of New Rochelle, was identified as the body   
   found in a suitcase in Greenwich, Conn., police said.   
      
   Valerie Reyes, of New Rochelle, N.Y., was reported missing Jan.   
   30, a day after she was last seen, according to ABC7 New York.   
   Reyes' cause of death wasn't immediately clear; but on Tuesday --   
    the same day cops made the gruesome suitcase find -- Greenwich   
   Police Department Captain Robert Berry said authorities were   
   investigating the death as a homicide.   
      
   “Her family was advised of the positive identification last   
   night. They are obviously devastated by the loss of Valerie and   
   our heartfelt condolences go out to them," Berry said, according   
   to ABC7 New York. “The Greenwich Police Department is dedicated   
   to identifying those responsible for the death of Valerie and   
   ensuring justice for her and her family."   
      
   Highway workers on Tuesday had stumbled upon Reyes' remains   
   after discovering the suitcase sitting about 10-15 feet from   
   Glenville Road in Greenwich, the town's police said. Reyes was   
   described as being clothed but reportedly had her hands and feet   
   bound.   
      
   The New York Police Department Midtown North Precinct tweeted   
   about Reyes in hopes someone who recognized her could help fill   
   in the blanks about the final days of the Westchester County   
   woman's life.

   “Have you seen Valerie Reyes?? 5’3”, black hair, brown eyes, ½   
   sleeve tattoo on left arm. Last seen wearing a green coat, black   
   jeans, and black shoes. Suffers from anxiety and depression,”   
   the message said.   
      
   The day of the suitcase's discovery marked a week since anyone   
   had reported seeing Reyes. Though it wasn't immediately clear   
   what other evidence was collected at the scene, investigators   
   soon honed in on Reyes as possibly being the mystery woman, with   
   officers going to Reyes' home in New Rochelle later Tuesday   
   night, News 12 Westchester reported.   
      
   Additionally, an unidentified highway worker was being   
   investigated after allegedly snapping unauthorized photos of   
   Reyes' body, according to The Hartford Courant and ABC7 New York.   
      
   The grisly roadside discovery in Greenwich shocked residents of   
   the elite enclave.   
      
   “I feel like this neighborhood is relatively safe, so it’s a   
   surprise. Finding a body near where you live, it’s concerning,”   
   Liza Scullin, a resident, told Greenwich Time.   
      
   “We’re supposed to be the safest towns in America or at least   
   one of them,” said Melissa Klinka, who's also a member of the   
   Greenwich community. “So something like this makes people   
   uncomfortable.”   
      
   Reyes worked at a Barnes & Noble store in Eastchester, N.Y.,   
   since the location opened more than two years ago, according to   
   the chain.   
      
   "The entire Barnes & Noble community is grieving the loss of our   
   beloved employee Valerie Reyes," Barnes & Noble said in a   
   statement. "Our hearts go out to her family, friends, and   
   coworkers during this difficult time."   
      
   Lauren Bradford, who worked with Reyes, said the young woman   
   planned to train to become a tattoo artist.   
      
   "Horrified. Absolutely horrified," said Bradford, 19. "I'm just   
   like totally shocked. She was a confidant. She really encouraged   
   me and my aspirations. She had a really bright future. She was   
   really excited about her art and her goals."   
      
   No arrests have been announced. Investigators have asked anyone   
   with information on the case to contact 203-622-3333.
