Case Details

NCOUC - Group 3

Missing or Unidentified Person

On May 14, 2007, hotel workers discovered badly decomposed partial skeletal remains, washed against a bridge abutment in Lieutenant's Run Creek behind the Ramada Plaza at 380 E. Washington Street in Petersburg, Virginia, with no clothing or identification present. Five years later, on August 12, 2012, a couple walking their dog found the top half of a human skull protruding from the mud approximately 200 feet west of River and Third Street in the same city, about two miles from the earlier site. Forensic analysis by the medical examiner and anthropologist determined the remains belonged to a female, likely Black/African American though ethnicity is uncertain, estimated to be between 25 and 40 years old (under 50), with an estimated postmortem interval of about 10 years, placing the year of death between 2002 and 2006; DNA testing confirmed the skull and skeletal remains were from the same individual, linking NamUs cases UP6665 and UP10692.
