Thompson said before her mother died, her mother told her that her sister had been murdered, and that, “she’s up in Greensburg.”
Why does that article say that her body was thrown into a dumpster?
This 1967 UP case for a young girl was just recently added to NamUs. I've never heard of this one before.
There are no publicly listed girls from that era who even remotely fit the description. But I am starting this thread, so that everyone is aware of her case.

Case History
The body of this young girl was found on Tuesday morning, September 19, 1967 near the Colvan Sanitary Landfill on County Road about 1/8 mile off of Route 66, roughly 2 1/2 miles west of Slickville. She was partially buried a few yards off the road leading to the landfill. A passerby noticed a foot sticking up out of the ground and called authorities.
She has never been identified.
She was buried in the "Potter's Field" on the grounds of the Westmoreland County Home, just south of Greensburg
The DNA is in. She is Teala Thompson.
