An unclaimed person case in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System identifies the decedent as Brenda Edwards, associated with the Bronx, New York. The record notes that her body was found on July 15, 2025, and the NamUs entry was created on September 9, 2025, under case number UCP149973. The listing ties her to the Bronx as the originating location and categorizes her as an identified but unclaimed decedent.
The case is managed by the New York City Office of Chief Medical Examiner, which is listed as the case owner. The agency entry provides the OCME address at 520 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016, includes a main phone number of 447-2030, and references an agency case number B-25-021455. These details place the investigation within NYC’s jurisdiction and under OCME’s mortuary and identification responsibilities.
The NamUs profile contains minimal descriptive particulars: hair and eye color are recorded as unknown, and no distinctive physical features are entered. The clothing and accessories section also contains no recorded information. The attachments area lists a “Facial Case Id” file uploaded on September 8, 2025, but otherwise the case shows no additional images or documents.
Within New York City, OCME is responsible for the custody and care of unidentified and unclaimed remains across all five boroughs, which aligns with the agency’s appearance on the case. NamUs serves as the national repository for such records, explaining why the Edwards case is cataloged there in detail alongside agency points of contact.
