Woman arrested after body discovered in Knox County storage unit

A Maquon woman was arrested yesterday for the concealment of a death after a decomposing body was found in a Knox County storage unit over the weekend.

Deputies arrested 50-year-old Marcy Oglesby on the class 4 felony charge. It's unclear if Oglesby is the owner of the storage unit where the human remains were discovered.

Authorities are still working to identify the body.
