A search with K9 dogs and drones were used to scour Penny’s home and eight-acre property, and investigators were ultimately led to the Genesee River in Rush, just a few miles away.

The MCSO scuba team and Henrietta firefighters recovered the woman’s body on Wednesday and she was positively identified by the Monroe County Medical Examiner’s Office on Friday.

Sheriff Baxter that investigators had “established significant evidence and probable cause to arrest her sister, Jamie Busch, for the ******* of Penny Busch.”

Penny Busch grew up in Schenectady and then spent time in Texas before moving to Monroe County roughly a year ago, according to the sheriff’s office. She had two children.

“I would like to thank the sharp deputies who determined this was more than just a check the ******** with an ****** not home,” Sheriff Baxter said. “The investigators’ determination to find leads, locate the deceased in the river, and apprehend her sister for the ******* is remarkable.”

Baxter did not disclose Penny Busch’s cause of ****** or a possible motive, citing an ongoing investigation into her sister Jamie.

Jamie Busch was placed on leave from her job in the district as a middle school paraprofessional,
