And how exactly does a woman end up in a black garbage bag due to natural causes? How could an autopsy miss that this was a murder. There is a serial killer who prays on woman in Manitoba, specifically Winnipeg. Here is a link with the killer's (probable) victims.

A body in a black garbage bag may establish that you improperly disposed of a body, but it doesn't by itself prove you caused the death of the person in the bag.

In this case, it isn't clear that the bag had anything to do with her -- it might just be a piece of rubbish that snagged on the floating body and attracted attention to it.

Missing woman's daughter wants DNA test to see if Winnipeg Jane Doe is a match
Investigators face budgetary restrictions that prevent more DNA tests from being done

By Donna Carreiro, CBC News Posted: Apr 22, 2015 9:00 PM CT

It could take as little as a few hundred dollars and a saliva sample for Barb Desjarlais to find out if the body of a Winnipeg "Jane Doe" is her missing mother, but even the promise of a newly enhanced national DNA database for missing persons might not give her the answers she's looking for.

"There's no doubt in my mind that that's my mom. Let's just do the test. Just prove it," Desjarlais told CBC News from her Regina home.

Missing & Murdered: Unsolved cases of indigenous women and girls

Desjarlais is referring to the unidentified human remains of a woman whose lifeless body was pulled from the Red River in 2012.

Little is known about this Jane Doe, except this: she was about five feet five inches tall, had long dark hair and was thin. She had dentures and, based on how she was dressed, she was likely homeless or at least transient.

But she also wore jewelry; specifically, a necklace with a dolphin on it, just like the one Barb Desjarlais's mother had.

"On Thursday morning — almost three years to the day that the woman's body was found — Desjarlais now knows it was her mother.

"At least I know it's her," she said. "It's not an unknown lady in an unmarked grave anymore."

But Desjarlais now has more questions for the authorities; Why did they tell her that her mother was never missing? Why didn't they believe her when she insisted otherwise? And what exactly happened to her mother in those final hours before she entered the river?

"I have so many more questions," she said. "I need to know more."
