Garvin County Jane Doe was a young woman who was discovered in a creek bed near Paoli, Oklahoma, in 1987. Though her body was severely decomposed, it was determined that she had been shot in the back of the head in what the coroner termed an "execution style" homicide.
Case[]
On June 24, 1987 the skeletal remains of the decedent were found approximately 1 1/2 miles from the Interstate 35 exit to Paoli in a creek bed. Despite the state of the remains, it was determined the victim had died as little as one month previous to discovery. Her cause of death was listed as homicide due to the gunshot wound discovered at the back of the skull. The coroner termed this an "execution style" shot, and that the bullet used was possibly .38 caliber or more. She was buried in Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Pauls Valley in November 1987.
