Two men hunting rabbits in the desert east of Houghton and Corona, near the Pima County Fairgrounds noticed a jacket hanging from a tree. Upon approach they found the body of a young woman lying in a dry wash.
Her face and arms were scratched, indicating she may have been walking through the desert brush. She didn't appear to be a transient. Her body was found about the time the Pima County Fair was being held.
She may have been involved with the fair or with a traveling carnie or may have possibly been a runaway.
A convicted murderer connected to this case was found in possession of a photograph of a woman investigators believe resembles the reconstruction of the unidentified victim. Police believe the photo may have been taken around 1979 to 1981 in the Tyngsboro, Massachussetts area.
The photo led to the victim's identification in 2015 as Brenda Marie Gerow of Nashua, New Hampshire.
She is the daughter of William Joseph Gerow and Brenda Louise Harriman her ashes are located in their home and will be placed in Woodlawn Cemetery, Nashua, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire upon the event of her parents death.
