Jenny is the nickname given by law enforcemenent to a woman discovered in a wooded area near the intersection of 48th Avenue and Filmore Street, Hundsonville, Michigan, in 1967.
The DNA Doe Project was asked to assist with her identification in April 2021.
Case
Hunters found the woman in a field on October 20, 1967, apparently after she was murdered. During the late evening of October 17, a white Rambler-brand vehicle was seen in the proximity of the area, although it has not confirmed to be involved in the dump job.
In July 2020, it was announced that NCMEC was partnering with the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office to exhume the body for DNA. NCMEC dropped the case in October the same year.
The female had previously been listed to be as young as 13, with a decomposed body condition.
