This case has interested me because it seems like the sort of case that should have been solved.
Yes, everything's points to Eastern Contra Costa County which is a pretty small area. If the victim was never reported as a Missing Person, you would expect the publicity after the body was found to generate some leads.
I disagree that this was a "intimate partner" homicide however. She was bound and gaged before she was hit on the head and killed. Who ever kills their wife or girlfriend that way? Sounds like someone held against her will before she was killed. The victim doesn't seem to be a sex worker or drug user who became vulnerable due to her lifestyle, but she could very easily have been someone who trusted some guy she shouldn't have.
some intimate partners have tied their mate up. but you also could be right.
what about Terry Rasmussen? this was his missing years.
Rasmussen was living in Richmond, an hour's drive to the dump site. He had no ties to the Antioch- Brentwood area. Anything is possible I guess.

Richmond is densely populated though. many murderers from contra costa and east alameda co. dump victims in the delta.
According to this article, she went through a post-mortem process that turns bodies into a waxlike substance. The assistant sheriff who worked on the case said she was like a mannequin.

So strange that she's still not on NamUs. From the $120 hiking boots and the perfect teeth, it sounds like she had money. It also sounds like she and/or her killer were the outdoorsy types, due to the hiking boots and the sleeping bag.I looked for another thread on this but didn't find one..please feel free to shut this down or merge if necessary.
There seems like so much information here. I searched for a few hours and didn't come up with any good potential matches

Sandra Ann strikes me as too old (48 years old)... I don't think Jane Doe's striped toe socks are something a middle-aged mother would wear in the '90s.The Doe Network: Case File 1244DFCA
Possible match?
The timing, location and height / weight seem similar but Julianne's hair is listed as brown and looks dark brown in photos, whereas Jane Doe's was "strawberry blonde or red."
I think Rachel Lucinda Jones could be a possibility. Someone on another message board called LAPD in January to ask about her and wrote:What about this one? The missing date is shown as 3/11/95, which is only 18days prior to the discovery of the body, but she could have already been dead (and in the freezer) for quite a while before her body was put on the levee. Maybe the killer kept her disappearance to himself, until he moved the freezer to the levee (on the 11th?). Even though the dates are a little off she could still fit very well.
The main point about this missing woman is that she has an engagement ring ON HER RIGHT RING FINGER in her missing photo,which leads me to think she's a good possiblity for the DOE. She also has the 'look' of someone upper class who'd have manicures, perfect teeth, etc. and looks young enough to have been wearing the clothing described in the DOE information.
What do you think?

I think the distance between Florida and the Bay Area in California is most likely too far for it to be Christine Flahive. Also, she was thought to be going out to a bar and hiking boots + striped toe socks don't strike me as bar-going attire.
Jill Kristine Beaty looks like a good possibility, for a few reasons:Has Jill Kristine Beaty been ruled out? She disappeared from Reno NV in August 1994. Very little information out there but she is a good match.
