On January 27, 1981, the body of an unidentified Hispanic female was found in a citrus orchard near Torrey Canyon Road and Guiberson Road in an unincorporated area of Ventura County, California.

She had brown hair and brown eyes. The Jane Doe was found wearing a red, green, yellow, blue and white plaid shirt (size 36) over a blue tank top. She was also wearing a white strapless bra (size 38C), a gray knit skirt with black and maroon stripes in a "V" pattern, a black half-slip with lace with trim and blue "strappy" sandals. She was wearing a gold band ring on her left little finger and a gold ring with a clear stone on her left ring finger. She was also wearing a gold chain necklace with a cross and gold stud earrings. Two blue hair clips as well as a plain metal hair clip were found in the immediate area. The featured reconstruction is an artist’s rendering of what the Jane Doe may have looked like.
