A teenage female of Asian or mixed Caucasian and Asian descent was discovered in a dumpster on February 14, 1988, in Millen, Jenkins County, Georgia. The body was concealed by plastic, which was then duct taped and placed inside of a duffel bag. The victim had died of asphyxiation, and her body was not discovered until between four and seven days after her death.

Examiners concluded the decedent was between five feet five and five feet six inches in height; she weighed between 135 and 140 pounds and had long brown hair. In addition to having visibly crooked teeth, she had her left wisdom tooth missing, although all her teeth were apparently well-cared for.

The age range of the Jenkins County Jane Doe at the time of her death is determined to have been between 16 and 25. Along with her body, some bedding material was also found.
