Misrach Ewunetie was murdered behind the tennis courts of the college


Misrach Ewunetie, 20, was found Oct. 20 on the grounds behind the tennis courts by an employee six days after she was last seen in her dorm.

An autopsy conducted by the Middlesex Regional Medical Examiner's Office ruled Ewunetie's death a suicide. 

"The cause of her death was determined to be bupropion, escitalopram and hydroxyzine toxicity," according to a statement from the Mercer County Prosecutor's Office.

Bupropion and escitalopram are typically used to treat depression. Hydroxyzine is an antihistamine prescribed for allergies and anxiety. 

Ewunetie was last seen alive hours after the school's Terrace Club had a live music event.
