Circumstances of Discovery

The victim was located at 1903 NW 102nd Place, Gainesville, Florida on August 20, 2003.

An Alachua County resident discovered the baby floating in a private pond at an old catfish farm. She was found in 2 to 4 feet of water. The pond is located at the end of NW 102nd Place, just 3 miles north of the Highway Patrol Station.

NW 102nd Place is a dirt road that runs east off of State Road 121, and after a half a mile, dead ends into private property. The baby is believed to have been dumped at the location.

DNA testing indicated the female was born to two black parents that were of Caribbean descent.

Isotope testing indicated that the baby was born in the United States.
