I looked through quite a few keywords and could not find this case.
NOTE: NamUs lists Date of Discovery as December 10, 1989, while DoeNetwork lists Date of Discovery as the 11th. Height in NamUs is 5'3", while height on Doe Network is 5'6".

The victim was discovered on December 11, 1989 (December 10, 1989 in NamUs) in Green Cove Springs, Clay County, Florida.
Estimated Date of Death: 1 - 5 days

Estimated age: 25 - 35 years old
Approximate Height and Weight: 5'6" (5'3" in NamUs)
Distinguishing Characteristics: Black hair. Painted toenails.
Clothing: Navy blue jacket with red lining and "Riteway" patch on it, cardigan sweater, knobby soled sneakers, buttoned shirt.
Personal Effects: Two Dexter house keys; Two GM car keys that fit 1967, 1975, 1979, 1983, 1985, and 1986 model vehicles.

Here are 2 potential matches:
Melinda Joyce Holder (The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)) - I personally believe Melinda Joyce Holder is much more likely than the next potential match I will list because she went missing in the same town in which the UID was discovered (Green Cove Springs). As far as I can tell, G.C.S. is not a particularly large town; at the 2000 census, it had about 5.3 thousand people. To me, the UID sketch and Holder look similar, and Holder went missing in the same year that the UID was discovered.
Doris Regina Chavers (The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)) - Doris, to me, looks a lot like the UID sketch, but I don't think she is the UID because 1) she was the victim of a battery on April 30, 1989, while the UID apparently had "no evidence of antemortem trauma or disease," and 2) because she went missing from Sanford, Florida, which, while not far, isn't incredibly close either (about a 2 hour drive).
