A cold case from 1978 has been updated with new information. Authorities in California have identified a 15-year-old girl found dead in a shallow grave at a vineyard. The girl, Michelle Louise Collier, was last seen in February 1978.

Her body was discovered four months later by a tractor operator. At the time, her identity was unknown and she was referred to as Jane Doe. Further details about the case are available from the Kern County Sheriff's Department, which recently held a press conference to release the new information.

The case had gone cold due to the lack of identification, but it has been reopened multiple times over the years.
