       The missing 25-year-old son of two Missouri state judges has been found dead in Sacramento, Calif., nearly a month after he disappeared.

       Amazon employee Alex Holden had been missing since New Year’s Eve. Sacramento police said his body was found Sunday near a river, according to reports.

       Police ruled out foul play, the Springfield News-Leader reported.

       "While this is not the outcome we hope for in any missing person case, Alex's family finally has closure and can now begin the healing process after what has been a long month," police spokesman Karl Chan said, according to the paper. His parents told police that their son's disappearance was uncharacteristic of him.
