Nearly 45 years after a woman was found shot to death on a logging road in western Massachusetts, investigators have identified her through advanced genetic testing.
Patricia Ann Tucker, 28, was found on Nov. 15, 1978. A group of kids playing in Granby found her body on November 15, 1978 buried under a pile of leaves, stuffed underneath a log, CBS Boston reports. Investigators said at a news conference Monday that she had been shot in the temple and they believed she was killed about three months earlier in August 1978.
For decades, the woman known as "Granby Girl" was buried in a local cemetery with a headstone marked "Unknown."
