Found Deceased MI - Jeff Hurley, 34, & Alexandria Foust, 19, Missaukee County, 7 Nov 2017

State police say they’re missing and could be in danger.

Troopers are looking for Alexandria Foust and Jeff Hurley.

With more snow moving in, state police say time is a factor.

Foust and Hurley were last seen in Moorestown, near Dead Stream Swamp in Missaukee County.

Troopers found their belongings there.

Foust is 5’5”, weighs 130 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.

Hurley is 5’10”, 195 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.

If you have any information at all on where these two might be call the state police post in Houghton Lake.

Given the length of the four-day search and the inclement weather -- four inches of snow and extreme cold surged into the area Thursday -- police decided to suspended the current search efforts late Friday.

Police expect aviation and tracking dog searches to resume at a later date.

State police are asking hunters in the area for firearms deer hunting, beginning Nov. 15, to be on the lookout for any evidence of the two people. If any is found, police say not to disturb the evidence and call them at 989-422-5101.

A witness said they saw the couple driving the vehicle into the area, which investigators found was stuck in the mud.

On Nov. 9, search teams confirmed the couple’s presence in the area from multiple personal items found by canine teams. However, the Hurley and Foust were not found from these efforts.
After considering the search area, inclement weather, and efforts being exhausted from media, investigators, aviation, canine, and foot search teams, the search and rescue plan ended at nightfall on Nov. 10.

With deer season opening Nov. 15, hunters are asked to stay vigilant for Hurley, Foust, or any evidence that might lead to their whereabouts.

Searchers reported finding articles of their clothing, including hats. That is not a good sign at all with temps being down in the single digits.

Shortly before death from lethal hypothermia, the person will remove all their clothes, as if they were burning up, when in fact they are freezing. (not to go into great medical detail but it is based on the effect of a cold induced paralysis of the nerves in the vessel wells which lease to vasoconstriction and a resultant feeling of warmth) Because of this, people who have frozen to death are often found naked and are misidentified as victims of a violent crime. (Pardoxical undressing).

Once they've undressed, the dying person will frequently try to crawl into a small, enclosed space. (terminal burrowing). For which reason, victims of hypothermia are often found naked, squeezed into cupboards or beneath beds and usually a fair distance from where their clothing was shed.
