California authorities have recovered human remains in the area near missing New Jersey resident Lauren Cho's last known location.
Cho, 30, was last seen on June 28 leaving a home where she was staying in the Yucca Valley. A search warrant was served on July 31 at the home and in surrounding areas in addition to extensive aerial and ground searches.
