Some sad news to report from the Megadeth camp. The partial remains of Dave Mustaine’s mother-in-law, Sally Estabrook, were found on Wednesday in Julian, CA. She’d gone missing from a campground on October 4, and partial skeletal remains, later confirmed to be Estabrook, were discovered in heavy shrubbery about half a mile from the campground.

The 75 year-old Estabrook had suffered from Alzheimer’s disease, and had walked out of the campground while her husband was showering. In a press conference last month, Mustaine urged those in the area to help try to locate Estabrook. CBS8 reports that no foul play is suspected, but an autopsy is being done to determine her cause of death. This is a sad ending to a heartbreaking story, and our condolences are with her family and friends.
