The woman whose body was found Tuesday afternoon in Laurelhurst Park died of accidental drowning, medical examiners determined.

The Multnomah County Medical Examiner's Office identified the woman Wednesday as Justine Malmberg, 27.

A park visitor found Malmberg's body floating in the park's pond at about 3 p.m. Tuesday, and alerted Portland police.

Police removed the clothed body from the water about an hour later.

Medical examiners have not said how long Malmberg had been dead when her body was discovered.

Malmberg was due to appear in Multnomah County Circuit Court Thursday on allegations of third-degree theft and first-degree criminal trespass stemming from an arrest on Monday, according to court documents.

She'd been convicted in April of unlawful use of inhalants, given a 20-day jail sentence and placed on probation with 40 hours of community service and drug evaluation and treatment ordered. She'd also had spent time earlier this year in a residential drug treatment program, according to court records.

Malmberg was released from Washington County Jail six days ago. Her arrest record includes charges of drug possession, theft and public transit fare violations in both Washington and Multnomah counties.
