Cutler's brother-in-law believed found dead

SALT LAKE CITY -- A body believed to be that of Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler's brother-in-law was discovered in a steep and rocky area in an isolated part of southern Utah, almost two weeks after his car was found abandoned nearby, authorities said Thursday.

The remains that investigators think are Michael Cavallari, the brother of reality TV personality Kristin Cavallari, were found Thursday morning, Grand County Sheriff Steven White said.

The body was sent to the Utah medical examiner to confirm the identity and determine the cause of death, a process that could take as long as two months, White said.
