Sheriff’s Homicide Detectives Seek Public’s Assistance in Identifying Female Body Found in Gorman

Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau detectives are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying a deceased woman whose body was found Sunday, August 14, 2016, in a remote area along Gorman Post Road, north of California State Route 138, in Lebec, an unincorporated area of Los Angeles County. 

The woman’s body was found in the late afternoon of Sunday, August 14, 2016, lying in the brush by a motorist during a rest stop in that area.  The victim appeared to be unconscious, which prompted the motorist to call 9-1-1.  Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station deputies and fire rescue personnel responded and discovered the victim suffered trauma to the head.  She was pronounced dead at the scene.

The victim is a female, either White or of Hispanic descent, 25-35 years old, approximately 5’1” tall, and weighing approximately 96 pounds.  The victim had blue eyes and her hair was dyed a dark burgundy color.

The victim had several tattoos on her body, including the names “Rylee” and “Brayden.”

If you have any information about the victim or this investigation, please contact Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau Lieutenant Joe Mendoza, Sergeant Ken Perry or Detective Scott Matlock at the 24-hour number, 323-890-5500.
