Circumstances of Discovery

A state highway administration worker cutting weeds found the victim at the bottom of an embankment.

The victim was on the southbound side of I-270, down the Baker Hill Road embankment. It is not believed she was killed at this site.

In 1995, authorities looked into a truck driver from North Carolina about this killing. He had been arrested for killing an Ohio woman, whose body was found in Kingsport, Tennessee, and was suspected of killing as many as seven women and dumping their bodies on the side of highways.

A search of his house found women's shoes and undergarments. The victim was found without shoes or undergarments.
