LEBANON COUNTY, Pa. — The identity of a young woman found dead more than 50 years ago has been determined.
Pennsylvania State Police will hold a news conference on Nov. 21 at 12:30 p.m. at the Lebanon County Department of Emergency Services.
On Oct. 10, 1973, PSP Trooper L Jonestown investigated the death and identity of a young woman found by two Lebanon County Game Wardens in a wooded area off of Moonshine Road, near Ridge and Tomstown Roads in Union Township.
Her remains were found under a plastic tarp and brush and had been decomposed.
The victim was described as a white female with long brown or blonde hair, with a thin to average build and about 5'3" to 5'6".
Over the years, investigators have attempted to identify the young woman through various investigative efforts.
Her identity will be released during the Thursday press conference.
