Love Triangle: Autopsy Reveals Fresh Details On University Student Found Dead After Days Missing

A wave of grief has swept through the University community after 20-year-old student Jade McKissic, also known as "Sage," was found dead following a mysterious disappearance.

Sage had been reported missing on Thursday, September 11, after leaving a local bar with friends in Houston’s Third Ward.

Witnesses said she left LA Burgers and Daiquiris without her phone, making it difficult for anyone to follow her movements.

The frantic search lasted several days, involving family, friends, and local authorities, before her body was discovered on Monday, September 15, in Brays Bayou, several kilometers from the place she was last seen.

The Houston Police Department confirmed that a postmortem was conducted to determine the cause of death.

Officials revealed that there were no visible injuries on her body and no indications of foul play, bringing a measure of clarity but little comfort to her grieving loved ones.

Social media quickly became a hub for mourning, with hundreds of people sharing condolences and expressing concern for student safety.

Some suggested tighter monitoring around the city’s waterways, while others urged parents and universities to maintain closer communication with students living away from home.

Many emphasized that young people should remain vigilant, particularly during nighttime outings, and avoid risky situations.

Sage’s tragic death has sparked conversations about the challenges students face while living independently.

Her story highlights the importance of safety precautions, community support, and awareness of surroundings, particularly in urban areas.

Although the circumstances surrounding her disappearance and death are now partly understood, the emotional impact on family, friends, and classmates remains profound.

Tributes poured in from fellow students and alumni, remembering Sage for her personality, ambition, and the moments she shared with those around her.

This unfortunate event has prompted discussions within the community about preventive measures and the need for stronger support systems for young people, both at home and in universities.
