Merseyside Police has released a reconstructed image of a woman found dead inside a bin bag in Stanley Park, appealing for the public's help to identify her. The image was created by Liverpool John Moores University's Face Lab in collaboration with the police.
Discovery in the Walled Garden
A dog walker found the body after spotting a bin bag in the Walled Garden area of Stanley Park on August 28. The victim is believed to be between 60 and 80 years old and was wearing a distinctive neon pink Nike top.
Investigators have established a full DNA profile of the woman, but no match was found in the national database. Identification through dental records has also proven impossible because the victim had no top or bottom teeth.
Appeal for Information
Det Supt Wilson said 181 names had been suggested for the woman, but the force has so far been unable to confirm her identity. She added that police still believe the victim is local to Liverpool because of where she was found.
Merseyside Police has not disclosed the cause of death, citing investigative reasons. An inquest has not yet been formally opened.
In a statement, Merseyside Police said: "We hope that the image of the woman combined with the physical description, clothing and ailments will jog someone's memory. If you have information please get in touch with us as a matter of urgency."
