Brittany Wicklein's remains were found in South Fulton, Georgia, hours after the 31-year-old was reported missing.

"Our sister, Brittany, was tragically murdered on June 18th," Demetrius Scott wrote on a GoFundMe page set up to raise funds to cover the costs of her funeral and support her two children."Brittany was the sole breadwinner for her family," Scott wrote, adding that she was"a protector and hero of her kids."

Wicklein and her children moved to Atlanta from Indiana to seek a better life and were living with her aunt, Melba Scott, according to WXIA-TV. She worked in the medical field, and loved music and dancing. Wicklein's death came just days after another incident, in which human remains were found in similar circumstances in South Fulton. Police discovered those remains after responding to a vehicle fire in the 4100 block of Union Road on June 12.
