[Mrs. Badcrumble]

ngl, I found Sepulveda Jane Doe when I was looking for updates on Van Nuys Jane Doe 53; she was found thirteen months earlier in the same area (in the thick underbrush around the Hjelte Sports Center in the Sepulveda Dam basin area along Burbank Boulevard).

I'm not suggesting there's a connection between the cases -LA is one the world's largest cities, meaning there must be hundreds, if not thousands, of different killers there in the late 80's. They just happened to end up Jane Does, killed and dumped close to each other, little over a year apart, and still remaining Jane Does several decades later.
