The charred body of Zhao, 33, was found in a Michigan recreation area about an hour away from Detroit July 13 with the tragic news only going public in recent days.

Detective Lieutenant Christopher Hild told WXYZ that the case could be connected to Zhao's travels in the poker circuit around the country.

Zhao had cashed at ten World Series of Poker events.

"She was a free spirit in the truest sense," Meredith Rogowski said, according to WXYZ. "She played by her own rules. She followed her dreams. Absolutely brilliant."

The FBI in Michigan is providing technical and other assistance to support the investigation at the request of the White Lake police.

"We will make any and all of our resources available to WLPD for as long as they are needed," Special Agent Mara Schneider with the FBI in Detroit told CNN.
