Police say a body found in a lake in Dorset has been formally identified as missing mother-of-four Samantha Henderson.
Ms Henderson was violently attacked around the head and neck, a post-mortem examination showed.
The 25-year-old, who had children aged six, four, two and one, was discovered in a lake at Ham Common in Poole on Friday.
She was last seen leaving Corfe Castle Primary School on 21 January at 3pm and was reported missing the next morning.
Ms Henderson's boyfriend Dominic Isom, 27, of Corfe Castle, has pleaded not guilty to her murder.
He has been remanded in custody and is due to stand trial in July.
Detective Inspector Neil Devoto, of Dorset Police's major crime investigation team, said: "This afternoon a post mortem was carried out on the body recovered in Hamworthy.
"It confirmed that the victim had suffered a violent assault that appears to have been focused on her head and neck."
Police want to hear from anyone who saw Ms Henderson's blue Peugeot 307 estate car with the registration HV04 ZFM in the Corfe Castle or Ham Common areas from 3pm on the day she was last seen.
Mr Devoto, who is leading the inquiry, said: "Samantha's death has understandably shocked local people, who have rallied around her family, friends and neighbours in both Corfe Castle and her original home town of Poole.
"Her close family are being supported and regularly updated by specially trained family liaison officers.
"They have asked for privacy at this sad time.
"I would like to thank the public for their ongoing support to officers carrying out this investigation and their patience while we conduct searches.
"Their continued caution on social media is also appreciated and important, as inappropriate comments could cause further hurt to her family or potentially prejudice future criminal proceedings."
