A small red heart and a woman's digital watch was found near the
remains. The straps were stainless steel. Investigators
determined that the watch was manufactured by the Omni Watch
Company in the early 1980s. It was sold exclusively at the now
defunct Consumers Distributing from 1981 to 1983.

In 2010, a unique woman's gold garnet ring (size 9) with two
one-point diamonds on either side was found at the location when
the water table dropped. The ring is believed to have been sold
by Burns Jewelers in Oshawa, Ontario. The store was a family-run
business on Simcoe Street from 1923 to 1994. The ring had been
made by A&A Manufacturing in Toronto.

Computer-generated forensic reconstructions and artistic
renderings of the victim;

Cause of Death: Possible homicide
Physical Description
Estimated Age: 18-40 years old
Race: White
Gender: Female
Height: Unknown
Weight: Unknown
Hair Color: Unknown

Distinguishing Marks/Features: She has a very well-healed nasal
fracture which would have been located at the mid-point of her
nose (in life) - the point where the nasal bones end and the
soft part of the nose begins. The fracture is set so she either
received treatment, or it is possibly the result of rhinoplasty.
The fact that her nose had been fractured (or surgically
altered) would not have been obvious unless someone who knew her
at the time saw her post trauma/surgery, or she told someone.
She exhibits bone changes indicative of anemia.
Identifiers
Dentals: Available. Nice teeth with visible white fillings on
the front teeth. One front tooth appears slightly wider than the
other. Smallish silver fillings in some back teeth. Her upper
and lower jaws are described as narrow. She also had prominent
upper and lower teeth that protruded. Her upper teeth protruded
more than her lower teeth.

shirt was found at the scene due to the drop in the water table.
It was labeled "Blue Rodeo" and sold between 1995 and 1996.
Jewelry: A small red heart and a woman's digital watch was found
near the remains. The straps were stainless steel. Investigators
determined that the watch was manufactured by the Omni Watch
Company in the early 1980s. It was sold exclusively at the now

New Evidence Revealed in Case

DRPS Major Crime Homicide Investigators recently returned to the
scene near Bowmanville where female human remains were
discovered in October 2006 to conduct additional forensic
searches in a broader area.
Homicide and Forensic officers have been combing a broader area

The investigative search has revealed several new artifacts that
may be related to this case, including a ladies gold ring (size
9½) and an additional piece of clothing identified as a unique
multi-coloured shirt. In addition, investigators have now been
able to create a DNA profile of the unnamed female victim,
although no matches have been made.
The shirt has a "Blue Rodeo" brand name tag. A photo is
attached.
If you have any information about the possible identity of this
female, please contact Det. Nash of the DRPS Major Crime
Homicide Unit at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 5402 or call the

Ring may be the key to '06 cold case
By JENNY YUEN, QMI Agency
BOWMANVILLE, Ont. — The key to identifying a woman, whose
remains were found in a Bowmanville field in 2006, may lie in a
garnet ring. Igniting the cold case, Durham cops combed a field
near Holt and South Service Rds. Tuesday, after recently finding
two new pieces of evidence — a gold ring and a piece of a
multi-coloured shirt.
“It’️s a pretty unique ring in the sense it was a
size 9.5, ladies garnet ring with two diamonds on either side
— it would have been custom-made,” said Det. Chuck Nash, the
lead investigator. “Inside the ring, it’️s stamped
‘Burns,’️ a local jeweller in Oshawa.” Police said
the remains belong to a caucasian woman, between the ages of 18
and 30.
A woman’️s skull was initially found in the field in
October, 2006 along with a digital watch, a 1980 Canadian penny,
a piece of red ribbon and a small, red, heart-shaped object.
Interestingly, Nash said, the OMNI brass watch has a wristband
that could only accommodate a small wrist while the ring is
fairly large in size.
A DNA profile of the victim can now be created, although no
matches have been found, investigators said. Investigators
returned to the field on Oct. 27 — four years after the
initial search took place. There has been a lot of water from
inclement weather impeding police from looking under every nook
and cranny, but with drier fields, the search has become easier.
“We have over the past four years investigated hundreds of
missing person files, trying to match a missing person to our
remains — that hasn’️t been successful,” Nash said.
“If this ring is connected ... there is a possibility the
person may not be on file as missing. Perhaps a loved one will
recognize the ring.”
Police released facial reconstruction images to get the
public’️s help in identifying the mystery woman in
August 2009.
“Her teeth were in good shape, she’️s missing the
last wisdom tooth on the upper left portion of her mouth and she
has both metal and composite fillings,” Nash said. “She also
has a nasal fracture where the bone was well-set or as a result
of rhinoplasty.”
The search will continue for several more weeks.
