The partial skeleton of a woman was found on April 20, 1979 in
West Haven, Connecticut. She was between the ages of eighteen
and twenty-five when she died due to an unknown cause and
nature, near a water processing plant. She had died between 1971
and 1978, a year to eight years before she was located. A black
bra made from lace was the only article of clothing found, but
she also had a folding alarm clock in her possession. The woman
had fillings, signs of a dental disease and congenitally missing
wisdom teeth. She also may have had some back problems, as she
might have been missing a vertebra and could have had arthritis.

WEST HAVEN, Conn. (WTNH) – It’s been more than three decades
since a woman’s body was found on water company property off
Route 34 on April 20, 1979.
But police Tuesday released a forensic artist’s rendering of the
woman, giving new life to the cold case.
“It’s always rewarding, especially on a case like this where you
don’t have a lot of leads, or it’s so old to be able to get that
aha moment,” said Peter Massy, who teaches forensic science at
the University of New Haven.
The woman, who was white, was believed to be in her late teens
or early 20s at the time of her death, police said.
Massey said much can be learned from the skeletal remains, even
though they may have been there possibly eight years before they
were discovered in 1979.
“By knowing the skull shape and the structure,” he said, “they
can start to determine the race, male, female, different
structures, age.”
It may not be an exact likeness but it should resemble the
woman. Here’s more information about her:
She was 5-foot-1 to 5-foot-3 tall, had periodontal disease,
several fillings and all wisdom teeth were congenitally missing.
She may have also had congenitally missing lower vertebra and
may have had arthritis and lower back pain. She was found with
only a black laced bra and a folding travel alarm clock in hard
red case.
Police are hoping that someone does have one of those aha
moments and can help identify this woman. From there, police may
finally be able to reconstruct what happened.
