The Grays Harbor Jane Doe: Unsolved Homi...

The Fall Line®
About this episode

In October of 1988, the remains of a homicide victim were found in a rural area of Grays Harbor County, just outside Elma, Washington. A dedicated detective worked her case for years—first in his role with the sheriff's office, and then as coroner. Even now, in his retirement, he’s followed the case.

 Despite thousands of hours of investigation, her identity remained elusive; but then, in 2018, forensic investigative genetic genealogy became a possibility, and The DNA Doe Project took on the case of the Grays Harbor Jane Doe. But her case has proved incredibly difficult, and genelaogists and investigators need your help to reconnect her to her identity, and solve her murder. 

Season 18 covers four unsolved homicides in four states and across three decades: all are in need of local and national attention to be resolved.
