Published: September 23, 2009
Henrico County police today released drawings of a facial reconstruction in hopes of solving a homicide that occurred more than 18 years ago.
Henrico police completed the two-dimensional facial reconstruction based on skeletal remains that were found Jan. 11, 1991, in a wooded area off Evergreen Road in the county’s eastern end.
Forensic medical investigators determined the remains were those of a black woman, about 25 to 40 years old, between 5 and 5-foot-5 and weighing 100 to 115 pounds.
The victim, who was wrapped in a blanket and had signs of trauma to the skull, was wearing a size 6 pair of frayed denim shorts with topstitching and a “Made in Thailand” label. She was believed to have died between 1989 and 1990.
The drawings released today represent a likeness of how the victim may have looked.
Anyone with information can call Henrico police investigator J. M. Berger at (804) 501-5000 or Crime Stoppers at (804) 780-1000.

Not to be rude—but that look isn’t exactly one in a million.
Despite this being a very sad case, the story is interesting - how cool that a drawing can come from a skull.
I suppose time will tell how accurate this drawing really is…
Hopefully someone recognizes her and hopefully the victim’s family will get the closure they deserve.
