Michelle 'Missy' Jones was an 18yo who went missing on 5 July 1980.

"....her naked body was found in a grapefruit grove at Live Oak and Santa Ana avenues in that city on July 5, 1980. She appeared to have been sexually assaulted...." www.sbsun.com/2025/11/19/45-years-after-fontana-teen-is-found-slain-71-year-old-man-is-convicted-of-murder/

Her killer Leonard Nash was identified via DNA. He had not been questioned at the time, but was a one-time boyfriend of one of Missy's sisters. In November 2025 Nash was sentenced to 15 years to life for second degree murder.
