    Case History
    The victim's skeletal remains were discovered in Santa Ana Canyon near the Riverside Freeway. She was located in a grassy area about 50 feet off of the road. The bones were scattered across an area 50 yards by 50 yards. Searchers found handfuls of blond hair but no clothes, pocketbook, car keys--no clues to the identity of the skeletal remains.
    An autopsy on the woman's remains didn't turn up the cause of death, but defects in two ribs were found, consistent with penetrating stab wounds.
    It is believed she is a runaway teen.
