Reiff was reported missing back in 2013 after she didn't show up to a scheduled trip with family.
Officers responded to her residence at the Lakeview Apartment Complex on June 21, 2013. When they got inside, Reiff was nowhere to be found and her car was still in the parking lot.
On June 24, 2013, officers found Reiff's body in a wooded area behind an old maintenance building of the apartment complex.

An autopsy was conducted and the cause and manner of death were left undetermined due to decomposition, according to police.

During the course of the investigation, officers interviewed Grisoff, a maintenance worker who lived near the victim's apartment.
At the time, Grisoff allegedly told police he saw Reiff and complimented her in the past, but he said he was never inside her apartment.
Officers recovered DNA evidence from the victim's jeans and an empty beer bottle inside her apartment.
DNA testing did not produce conclusive results at first, but thanks to advancements a decade later, testing revealed a match for Grisoff and the victim.
