Deputy Sean Defoe said the body of Mechell Loraine Fincher, 46, of Byron was found inside the 2007 Mustang which he said left the roadway at a high rate of speed early Wednesday morning, struck brush and trees, and flipped several times before coming to rest in a wooded area. “We’re still trying to determine why this happened,” he said.
