Vital Statistics
Estimated age: 18-22 years old
Approximate Height and Weight: 5'3"
Distinguishing Characteristics: The victim was most likely a light-skinned African-American, or possibly Native American female. Brown hair; brown eyes.
Medical: She had a right artificial eye and previous trauma suffered to skull. Skull trauma consists of a large depressed fracture near the front center of the skull extending down to the orbit of the right eye. These injuries likely occurred 6 months to 2 years prior to death. The injury occurred before death because platinum surgical wire used to reconnect the bone was found. She may have suffered from chronic seizures because of this head injury, that may, or may not, have contributed to her death. But because the body was found in a wooded area about 75 to 100 feet from the interstate, foul play is possible.
Clothing: Except for a patch of nylon that resembled panty hose and a size 8 silver ring with inlaid coral and turquoise-colored stones, her clothes had disintegrated.
Other: Remains may be that of a missing female in Hall Co. possibly called “Donna”, who wore moccasins on occasion and was believed to be of Native American decent.
Dentals: Available
