The body of Amy Lord, 24, from South Boston, was found in Hyde Park by a man riding a bicycle in the thickly-wooded area on Tuesday morning.
She was one of the three young women attacked in the same area this week.
A woman was attacked at Andrew Square at 5am on the same day and a third today at 12.10am. Police believe they were all attacked by the same man. They both survived.

One man suspected in the attacks is in custody, a law enforcement official with knowledge of the case said. They are still looking for a second man as police believe Amy Lord – a high school cheerleader and Bentley University graduate – was kidnapped by two men.
Her black Jeep was discovered a short time later. It had been set on fire.
Donald Lord, Amy Lord’s grandfather, said he was devastated at the news.
‘If you had a daughter, you would want her to be like Amy,’ he told the Boston Herald. ‘She was everything you would want to your daughter to be.’
She worked as a digital media analyst for Genuine Interactive. The company released a statement saying her death was ‘both tragic and shocking’.
No arrests have been reported, but Boston police and Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F. Conley’s office are actively investigating the crime.
Leah Cameron, Amy’s former cheerleading coach at Minnechaug Regional High School in Wilbraham, said: ‘She was this beautiful angel who came from a small town and went to the big city.’
A number of young women could be seen crying and hugging outside her apartment today according to the Boston Globe.
Lord was a 2011 graduate of Bentley University in Waltham with a bachelor’s degree in marketing, quantitative perspectives, the university said in a statement.
‘Our heartfelt sympathies and condolences go out to Amy’s family, friends, classmates and professors.
‘We can only imagine their grief during this tragic time. The Bentley community grieves along with so many who knew and loved this ambitious, energetic and talented young woman.’

ALWAYS A BLACK that does it… Anyone against right to carry laws should be put in a psych ward.May she rest in peace but liberalism is a mental disorder of the WORST kind. It gets people killed. ANY woman especially that does not learn self defense and gets physically strong is INSANE. You are simply betting on chance then. Oh and for the politically correct cowards who REFUSE to deal with racial realities go look up a study called the color of crime. You simply LIVING in real life should tell you that anyway!
Was looking for info on the idiot librarians who demanded that police and prisons be eliminated. This poor women’s death is proof that they are insane. Instead we need to stop allowing criminals multiple chances to commit crimes. They should be given 3 chances with stronger sentences until on the third they spend the rest of their lives in prison. If they are to stupid to obey the law after 2 prison terms then their to stupid and evil to live in society. After this when they commit a felony they shall receive the death penalty.
