Samantha’s cause of death was multiple blunt force injuries, according to the autopsy report.
She was killed on March 29, 2019. The incident occurred after Samantha got tricked into entering a car that she thought was her Uber ride home.
The driver used childproof locks to prevent the former USC student from escaping. Hunters found her body 65 miles away in a wooded area.
Before her death, Josephson was with her friends in Columbia.
At around 2 AM, she ordered an Uber to go back home. Pictures from surveillance footage show her waiting for the Uber. Nathaniel Rowland, the alleged killer, appeared with his Chevy Impala about 9 minutes later.
Nathaniel then allegedly raped and killed Samantha. Several injuries were found on her body once they got discovered.
Samantha’s injuries included stabs to her head, neck, face, leg, and upper body.
