Department of Water and Power employees discovered this woman's body near San Francisquito Canyon Road, about five miles south of Spunky Canyon Road in Santa Clarita, California on April 10, 2013.
The decedent was wrapped in a tarp and left under bushes about 20 feet west of the roadway. It is possible this woman was attempting to enter the United States illegally, and her body may have been left there after she died by the coyotes assisting her entrance into the country.
It is believed she is from Honduras.
