A woman’s body, bound and gagged, was found in a fridge that had been submerged in a canal almost 30 years ago. Recently, investigators identified the victim as Amanda Lynn Schumann Deza, a mother of three who was 29 years old when she was killed. Her body was discovered in 1995 by a man who was searching for recyclable cans in an irrigation canal in San Joaquin County, California. Her hands were tied, her mouth was gagged, and she had been killed by blunt force trauma.
The discovery was made near Whiskey Slough, a marina in Holt, California. At the time, the victim had no identification, and no missing persons reports were ever filed, making it impossible for police to identify her.
