Texas EquuSearch, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping find missing people, began its search last week and offered a reward of up to $10,000 for Milliard’s location.

A spokesman for the organization said 11 alive that police received a call from a passerby who called to report a foul odor in the vacant lot.

The father of five from Walton County, Georgia, had traveled to Baton Rouge for what was supposed to be a 24-hour business trip, his wife Amber previously said.

But after a Louisiana State University basketball game and drinks at the pub with his client from work, Millard never returned to his hotel room, which was only a few steps away. The room was reportedly not disturbed and he did not show up for a meeting scheduled the next morning.

Milliard’s phone was found near her hotel and her debit card was used after she went missing.
