Authorities need the public’s help to identify human remains of an African-American woman found more than a year ago in Jackson County.

The remains were found April 5, 2016 in the 8600 block of East Truman Road in Kansas City. They are believed to be that of an African-American woman, approximately 25- to 32-years-old and approximately 5-foot-6 to 5-foot-9.

Jackson County sheriff’s deputies released Friday a clay reconstruction of what the woman may have looked like at the time of her death.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office at 816-541-8017.
