Llano County officials have identified a body found in Inks Lake in early July.
According to the Llano County Sheriff's Office, the body has been identified as 48-year-old Holly Marie Simmons, whose death has been ruled a homicide.
Simmons was reported missing under suspicious circumstances from her home in Buchanan Dam in November 2006.
The sheriff's office and the Texas Rangers have been investigating her disappearance since that time.
The Llano County Sheriff's Office, Texas Rangers and LCRA Law Enforcement responded to a call of possible human remains in Inks Lake July 7 after recreational divers found the remains at the bottom of the lake, under the Highway 29 bridge.
Two days later, the Texas Department of Public Safety Dive Team recovered the remains and confirmed they were human.
