Wright described Brown as \"alive and well\" when she was found but \"obviously traumatized.\" She told police she was being fed regularly for the two months she was locked in the container. She is now being treated at a local hospital.

Brown, along with her boyfriend, Charles Carver, were reported missing in August by the Anderson City Police Department after they failed to show up for dinner with friends, Wright said.

Carver is still missing, but the car he and Brown were last seen in were found in a wooded area on the property where Brown was found, Wright said.
