The Pulaski County Coroner needs help solving a 22-year-old cold case.
Clyde Strunk and two coroners before him have all worked on one cold case that seems to never get any closer to being solved. They have no clue who the woman is or what happened to her.
More than two decades ago, campers found remains of an unidentified woman at a Pulaski County park while looking for a campsite in the woods.
The Pulaski County coroner at the time determined that the remains had been there for at least a year, possibly even five.

Strunk hopes that new DNA technology could finally crack this 22-year-old case.
“It’s a long shot, but there has been some missing persons found this way, remains that has been identified this way,” said Strunk.
He says that the previous medical examiner made this composite of what she believes the woman looked like.
Jane Doe is also in the Department of Justice’s National Missing Person’s Registry or NamUs.
“It is all the national sites, and they’re searching every missing person that’s reported against anything that we may have,” said Strunk. “Then we can back up and find out who was last seen with her, who was there, who knew her, and we may be able to solve some more cases involved in that.”
Strunk said that this is all worth it because somewhere out there, the woman has a family.
