Her body was found along Interstate 35 near Georgetown on Halloween Day in 1979. She was wearing only a pair of orange socks at the time.

This is the new sketch just created by a forensic artist for the Williamson County Sheriff's Cold Case Unit.

In January, investigators made a new discovery in this cold case, saying that preliminary forensic evidence testing on DNA found on the victim's orange socks revealed two or more male contributors.
