On December 20, 1994, workers doing a mine reclamation project
discovered a human skull in a wooded area in Sugarloaf Township,
Luzerne County.

This is an abandoned anthracite coal mine in Luzerne County.
Some of these old mines are still burning underground.

Someone knew where those old deserted mine shaft entrances were.

Jane Doe's body was found at the edge of an old strip mine by
workers who were doing mining reclamation work in the area. This
reclamation work is being down to repair damage previously done
to the area from the former mines. Many of these mines still
have fires burning underground and there are explosions and
sinkholes. The damage to this area is an environmental
nightmare. Someone passing through wouldn't know the location of
the old strip mines. Whoever left Jane Doe next to the strip
mine knew that she wouldn't be found for a very long time. The
coroner estimated that she had been there for at least two
years.

This is the condition of Sugarloaf Creek, near where Jane Doe
was found.
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugarloaf_Creek
Sugarloaf Creek is considered to be impaired for aquatic life by
acid mine drainage/pH in its upper reaches.[2] All of the acid
mine drainage comes from the Oneida Number One Tunnel. The creek
is one of the sources of acid mine drainage that flows into
Tomhicken Creek.[4]
Sugarloaf Creek is highly acidic due to its impairment by acid
mine drainage. It has a pH of 5.0 and the concentration of
alkalinity in the creek is 0 milligrams per liter. The
concentration of water hardness in the creek is greater than 150
milligrams per liter.[5]
Sugarloaf Creek experiences pollution.
