Police are offering a $5,000 reward for information that will help them find the suspect responsible for killing a 29-year-old Idaho mother who recently moved to the Orlando area and was found dead from gunshots near Orange Blossom Trail.

Michele Lynn Mossuto was found by Orange County Sheriff’s Office deputies in the parking lot of Total Tire, located at 5292 S Orange Blossom Trail, on April 5, 2023, at around 7:53 a.m.
