Ryan said the victim's son, who is in his 20s, called Medford police at about 6:40 a.m. to report that he could not find his mother after waking up. The man said he last saw his mother at about 4:30 p.m. Sunday at the home, which they shared. He said he believed that at that time that she was going to leave the house to go to a nail appointment.

According to Ryan, Hovey Novaes' son told police that the front door to the house was left open when he woke up Monday morning. He also said his mother's car was still on the property and that he found her car keys, phone and purse inside the home.

Medford police then responded to the Emery Street home to investigate. Ryan said a police officer found Hovey Novaes' body under the porch at about 8:30 a.m.

"Based on the circumstances and the location of the body, this is being investigated as a suspicious death," Ryan said.
