On Mother's Day 1984, the skeletal remains of a murdered woman
were discovered by a hiker in a densely wooded, swampy area in
the Orange County section of New York's Harriman State Park. The
murder victim was a white woman presumed to be in her late 30's,
with natural gray hair and traces of blonde or brunette dye. She
was about 5' tall and there was evidence of extensive dental
work. Investigators noted several distinct pieces of jewelry
that the woman was wearing including a diamond stud pierced
earring and a thin, delicate 14-karat yellow gold necklace. The
woman was also wearing two rings on her right ring finger: a
14-karat white gold engagement right with a diamond center, and
a 14-karat yellow gold mother's ring, which had aqua and ruby
stones, and a third stone missing.
Through an autopsy, investigators determined that the cause of
death was a gunshot wound and the death was therefore classified
a homicide. There were few other clues at the crime scene and
her description did not match the records of missing persons in
the area. The case was entered into NamUs as UP9736, but with
leads exhausted, the case eventually went cold.
In March 2021, as part of a collaboration between the New York
State Police (NYSP) and the FBI, forensic evidence from the
unknown woman was sent to Othram with the hope that advanced DNA
testing might produce new leads to the woman's identity or to
the identity of a close family member. Othram scientists used
Forensic-Grade Genome Sequencing® to build a comprehensive DNA
profile for the murdered woman. This profile was delivered back
to law enforcement so that it could be used in a genealogical
search. The FBI investigative team conducted research resulting
from the DNA profile created by Othram and provided an
investigative lead to to the New York State Police.
In September 2022, additional DNA testing with a possible family
member confirmed the woman’s identity. Investigators have not
yet released the name or photo of the murdered woman because a
homicide investigation is currently in process. Investigators
are, however, asking for anyone that might know something about
this case to contact the New York State Police ( 1-845-782-8311)
and to reference agency case number FMSP 84-269.
