The following was taken from a press release distributed by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation on May 26, 2023:

WAYCROSS, Ga. – Special Agent in Charge, Jason Seacrist, discusses the 35-year-old case of a young girl who deserves justice.

On December 21, 1988, the skeletal remains of a girl, believed to be between 3 & 5, were found inside a suitcase in a desolate wooded area just outside of Waycross, GA.

It’s believed the little girl had been dead two to three months before she was found.

“We have gotten some weak links to follow through on, but we could really use some help in giving us some direction through a tip or anything else to help identify who this little girl is,” SAC Seacrist explains.

If you have information about this case, or you think you might know who the little girl is, you are encouraged to call the GBI. Anonymous tips can be submitted by calling 1-800-597-TIPS(8477), online at [https://gbi.georgia.gov/submit-tips-online](https://gbi.georgia.gov/submit-tips-online “smartCard-inline”) , or by downloading the See Something, Send Something mobile app.
