Authorities have not yet disclosed further details about the discovery or the causes of death for the pair.
Anderson and Kuhbander, who both worked at Liberty County Fire Services, were last seen together in Anderson’s car in the parking lot of a Crunch gym in Savannah early on June 24.
“At 11:40 my son walks out of the building and he looks very comfortable, like he just had his workout,” Kuhbander’s mother told
WJCL. “He doesn’t look rushed as he walks through the parking lot. After that, we don’t see him again.”
The couple had dated for several years after meeting in high school but recently split after what Jane described as a “toxic” relationship, she told CourtTV.
Just two days before their disappearance, police were called to a report of a domestic issue at an Olive Garden in Pooler, Georgia. Anderson had allegedly confronted Kuhbander at the restaurant while he was on a date and then keyed his car, leading to charges of second-degree criminal damage to property and disorderly conduct.
Around 10 a.m. on June 24, Kuhbander called his mother, stating that Anderson was “blowing up” his phone and threatening to kill herself, Jane said. “And, it’s not the first time that she’s done it,” she added.
When police went to Anderson’s home after the couple went missing, they found the door unlocked and a note suggesting she might have intended to harm herself, WJCL reported.
Liberty County Fire Services expressed deep sorrow over the loss. “These two extremely dedicated employees put their hearts and souls into protecting and serving the citizens of Liberty County,” the department said in a statement. “Our prayers, and those of the department, are with the families during this most difficult time.”
The investigation into Anderson and Kuhbander’s deaths is ongoing.
