Details

On August 21, 2002 the Genoa Township Police Department and the Delaware County Sheriff's Office were notified of a possible body found in a trash bag. Baby Jane Doe was discovered inside of a black trash bag, discarded along the Hoover Reservoir. The body was decomposed, and believed to have been a full-term birth.
