On July 19, 1972 the body of an unidentified woman was
discovered in the eastern area of Hernando County, FL near
Highway 50 and I-75. It is highly possible the woman had
recently traveled from Alabama or north Florida. The white
female is described as being 30 to 40 years of age,
approximately 5`0" tall, 125-145 lbs., and short brown hair.
She had six upper and six lower teeth. The woman was found
wrapped in a bedspread with a distinctive pattern, possibly a
"Pineapple Damask" print. There were three square corners and
one rounded corner.

Circumstances of Discovery
The victim was recovered in a wooded area off State Road 50,
three miles west of I-75, in Hernando County, Florida on July
19, 1972.
She was located by an area resident, near Withlacoochee State
Forest, under a bedspread.
The body was exhumed in 2015 for examination, testing and to
create a facial reconstruction. Isotope analysis indicated the
woman had lived in the United States for at least 5 to ten years
and also indicated she consumed nutrients consistant with an
American diet. She had spend at several years in Florida before
she died.
The victim may have been seen alive a few days prior, as three
individuals were witnessed in the area exiting a 1961 or 1962
Ford Falcon. Only two people returned from the woods.
The woman was nicknamed "Edna" by investigators based on her
facial features.

FaceLogics helps solve cold-cases with facial reconstruction
HTML https://media.fox13news.com/media.fox13news.com/photo/2019/08/28/Cold_cases_being_solved_with_facial_reco_2_7621523_ver1.0_640_360.jpg
BROOKSVILLE, Fla. (FOX 13) - New forensic technology is helping
law enforcement agencies across the country crack unsolved
cases.
The Hernando County Sheriff's Office is one of 180 agencies in
Florida paying FaceLogics to recreate images of people they have
no record of, aside from skeletal remains.
FaceLogics is a private, North Carolina-based company owned by a
former law enforcement agent. The company's highly-advanced
computer programs can provide life-like, 3D images of what a
person looked like when they were alive.
"It's kind of putting the old school with the new technology,"
said Vinnie Russo, owner of FaceLogics.
Earlier this week, the Hernando County Sheriff's Office released
a facial reconstruction image of a woman who was murdered in
1974.
Investigators are hoping the realistic, computer-generated image
of "Jane Doe," can help jog someone's memory.
"It's reworked to what she looked like in life, by her physical
makeup and cheekbones, and eye sockets," said Detective George
Loydgren.
According to the sheriff's office, the unidentified woman was
found in the area of High Corner Road and Cortez Boulevard in
Brooksville. She is described as being 30 to 40 years old,
125-145 lbs., with short brown hair, and six upper, and six
lower teeth.
Russo says his company's images have had great results and
believes they are more efficient compared to the traditional
clay models forensic teams typically make to recreate someone's
appearance.
FaceLogics charges law enforcement agencies about $180 per
facial reconstruction image. According to Russo, most agencies
pay $999 for a yearly "photo package" that covers facial
reconstruction images and composite sketches, among other
similar services.
