A Hamptons Mom Vanishes—And No One Says A Word
Cold Cases
Lilia Aucapina was a beloved face on the East End, a devoted mom and active in community service. And then she vanished without a trace.
UPDATE: The Hamptons mom who vanished last month was found dead Saturday in some woods close to her home, authorities say.
Southampton police say a hunter discovered the body of Lilia Aucapina hanging on a low branch in a wooded area in Sagaponack that cops and K-9 units searched after she was reported missing.
As The Daily Beast previously reported, Aucapina’s husband, Carlos, was a prime suspect in the beloved housekeeper’s disappearance. Sgt. Lisa Costa said in a statement, however, that cops are still investigating Aucapina’s death but it’s “not believed to be criminal in nature.”
