The dismembered body parts of an unknown Oregon woman found along the Willamette River in April 1946 are thought to be the remains of Oak Grove Jane Doe, Oregon state police said on Monday.
The remains of a woman had been wrapped in multiple burlap sacks before being dropped into the river, and over the years, several parts or clothing would be found along the shores. Authorities said Oak Grove Jane Doe was a petite white woman between the ages of 30 and 50. She is Oregon’s oldest unidentified victim.
