She looks Latina to me. I wonder if some of the tattoos are astrology-related. Maybe she and/or a close loved one are a Cancer (crab) or Scorpio (scorpion). Wish there were pictures of the tattoo.

Made a quick recon of Los Angeles Jane Doe - I feel like she's on the younger side of the age range.
Yes, I would guess her age range is 25-35.

Then you have tattoos, which in 1982 would have been indicative of a younger age.

But then, her tattoos are in private areas...so I dunno...Just didn't know any women with tattoos back then

This Doe's page was recently updated, and I think the second sentence below is new info? The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)

Circumstances of Recovery
On 02/12/1982 the decedent was found at a construction site with an apparent self inflicted gunshot would to her head. She was dressed in male clothing with short hair in a male-style haircut and was originally thought to be a male by officers.

This is important info - it sounds like this Doe was probably LGBT+, and that could help identify them. 1982 was a long time ago, but friends in the LGBT+ community from back then might be missing them. Or if they were trans, they might have been known as a man to their friends - perhaps someone (other than a family member) even reported them missing as a man. I wonder if the Trans Doe Task Force is aware of this case?

Also, their race has been updated to say White/Hispanic/Other instead of just White.
