Case[]

On July 15, 1971, two boys found the woman in a wooded area off a dirt road near State Route 99 in Woodstock, Maryland. She was injured and in a semi-conscious state. She could not be identified and was hospitalized at St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore. She appeared to be suffering the effects of exposure and in overall poor health.

When found, she was described as wearing a blouse, skirt, slip, and underclothes, but police could not find her shoes or purse at the scene. Without knowing her identity and medical history, doctors were unable to treat her or explain her condition. However, they determined that she had recently had a stroke on her left side and that she had not been assaulted in any way. She later died on September 7, 1971.
