Darke County Cold Case Task Force
1970 Unidentified Female Homicide

On October 11, 1970 two teenagers discovered the nude body of a female in a corn field off of Frazers Road in southern Darke County, Ohio.  The Darke County Sheriff's Office and Darke County Coroner's Office began an investigation.  The body was in a state of advanced decomposition which made visual identification impossible.  The Montgomery County Coroner's Office conducted an autopsy and the body was held at that office pending identification.  The "dumping" of the nude body was evidence of foul play; however, exact cause of death could not be determined.  The cause of death was suspected to be strangulation, asphyxiation or drowning. 

In Feburary of 1999 the case was reopened.  In December of 2007 the skull of "Jane Doe" was sent to a forensic artist for reconstruction.  Below is the description of "Jane Doe" and clay reconstruction of the skull.
