Some of her neighbors that CBS 17 talked with were shocked to find out that she was the woman Chatham County deputies found.

“I was feeling so bad for the news., you know? I lost my nice neighbor,” said a neighbor, who didn’t want to show is face on camera. He said he lived near Hikmat.

“We always said, ‘Hey, good morning, good evening,’ every time,” the man said. “When you show me the picture, that was really bad news for me.

The man said Hikmat had lived in the neighborhood for less than a year.

“She moved here from overseas,” he said. “I don’t know from which country. Three people lived here. Her husband and her sister-in-law. They are very nice people. Very friendly. It is very heartbreaking news for us.”
