On September 28, 1995, a patrol officer made a startling discovery behind a Hartford Road Strip Mall just a hundred yards off of Route 9. Wrapped in plastic and a sleeping bag, a dead young woman shot in the head once. To this day, her identity is still unknown. Her age was estimated to be about 17 to 20 years old.

There is a $50,000 reward authorized by the State of Connecticut for the arrest and conviction of the perpetrators of this crime. The two pictures at left are composite sketches as to what the victim may have looked like. For another composite sketch please visit this link.

In Late September of 2009, Police Departments from three states have made strides in getting closer to solving this woman's identity. They have linked her with an older female that was murdered around the same time and found in the Tolland State Forest in Massachusetts. The two are related and believed to be biological mother and daughter. They also theorize that the two women may have spent the better part of a year in the Albany, New York area. To see a sketch of the Massachusetts victim please visit here.

The Second Unidentified Murder Victim (picture of composite sculpture on the right)was a female estimated to be in her mid-twenties that was found in garbage bags near the railroad tracks on Myrtle Street across from what used to be the Fafnir Bearing Company.

Things got weirder behind the same HArtford Strip Mall where the 1995 Jane Doe was found murdered in August of 2007.
