The body of a woman was caught in the nets of a fishing boat off the coast of Massachusetts last week, and officials now believe she was buried at sea.

Authorities said that the deceased person, a woman, is unlikely to be identified and found there were "no indications of foul play."

No foul play is suspected in the case of the "wrapped" deceased body which was pulled from the ocean by a fishing crew off the coast of Massachusetts last week, according to the Suffolk County District Attorney's office.
