St. Louis Jane Doe was a woman that serial killer Gary Muehlberg confessed to killing between 1989 and 1991 in September 2022. Her remains have not been located or linked to an existing unidentified person case.

In September 2022, Gary Muehlberg, who was incarcerated for the 1993 robbery murder of Kenneth Atchison, was connected to the murders of three women after his DNA matched at the crime scenes. When O'Fallon Police Department Sergeant Jodi Weber spoke to him, he confessed to the murders of Brenda Pruitt, Robyn Mihan, and Sandy Little. He stated that he took them to his house in Bel-Ridge, where the victims were subjected to numerous acts of torture before Muehlberg strangled them and dumped their bodies where they were found. Later that month, he confessed to the 1991 murder of Donna Reitmeyer and an unidentified woman, whose remains have not been located.

Muehlberg confessed that he did not remember her name if he even learned it. However, he met her at the Wedge bar at the corner of Bates and Virginia in the Carondelet neighborhood of St. Louis. He doesn't remember when he killed her, but it's believed to have been between 1989 and 1991. During this time period, he held her body at his house, and he dumped her after killing Reitmeyer.

Muehlberg stated he left her body in a metal barrel at the Ram Jet self-service car wash on Natural Bridge Avenue in Berkeley during the early 1991 winter. However, the son of the car wash's owner and a Pagedale municipal employee denied that a woman's body was found at that Ram Jet. What they did say was that a woman's body was found at a different Ram Jet on Pennsylvania Avenue. Details of the murdered woman found at the Pennsylvania Avenue Ram Jet are currently unavailable.

Despite the conflicting statements, Weber believes it was possible there were bodies discovered at both car washes. She is currently investigating and encourages anyone from the St. Louis area who heard about a body being disposed of at a car wash to come forward.
