According to Sky news, mother is searching for answers after her daughter's body was allegedly dumped on the side of the road by her friends.
Taylor Smith, 20, was reportedly with them on Wednesday night when she suffered an asthma attack and used her inhaler before laying down to recover.
The friends apparently tried to revive her in a shower but then left her body near a trailer park in Jasper, Georgia.
One of the friends, 38-year-old Marty Gaddis, was arrested and faces charges that include concealing a death and abandonment of a body.
Ms Smith's mother, Tanya Smith, said she wants to know why the group allegedly abandoned her daughter and did not seek medical help when she first had the attack.
She said: "I don't know if they knew if she was deceased or not.
"But they put her in a shower and tried to revive her and when that didn't work, they put her in a car and drove her to this location in Jasper and dumped her body in front of a trailer on the side of the road."
She said she does not know the friends her daughter was with that night and does not understand why they did not take her to hospital when she first experienced breathing trouble.
"I can't imagine what they were thinking. It is heartbreaking," Ms Smith, who is a local police lieutenant, told MyFoxAtlanta.com.
She said she hoped other young women will learn from her daughter's story, and not be as trusting around so-called "friends."
"Not everybody that you meet that says, 'I care about you,' actually cares about you. Be cautious and be around people that you can trust," Ms Smith said.
She added that some of the other people with her daughter that night may also be charged.
