The body of a Caucasian female was found by a worker in a vineyard in Rancho Cucamonga, California on June 7, 1979. The next day, the San Bernardino sheriff's office began circulating the details about the discovery through the media, citing her age as between 18 and 30 years. She was dubbed the Rancho Cucamonga Jane Doe. In April 2024, she was finally identified as 17-year-old Karen Heverly, a runaway from Jersey Shore, PA.
