Meggan Jordan, 33, of Conway, was found near the Pawleys Island Pier on October 7, according to reports by The Sun News and WFXB.

In an October 8 update reported by The Sun News, Coroner Chase Ridgeway said the autopsy found no injuries that caused or contributed to her death. WFXB reported the same finding October 9.

Ridgeway said additional testing and examinations were needed before a cause and manner could be determined. That was the status described in the October reports. Those findings did not identify a cause of death or establish homicide.
