Sue Ann Huskey was identified in 2019 after more than three decades as the woman long known as Corona Girl. Her body was found September 25, 1989, along the Interstate 35 frontage road in the Jarrell area of Williamson County, Texas. She was 17 at the time and had been wearing a Corona T-shirt, which gave rise to the nickname that persisted until DNA and genealogical research traced her to family in Sulphur Springs.

The cause of death was ruled a homicide by firearm. Investigators suspect she may have been hitchhiking, which could explain why she was in that stretch of the highway when she was killed. The Williamson County Sheriff’s Office, working with the DNA Doe Project, confirmed the identification through family DNA testing and continues to investigate the murder.

Anyone who knew Sue Ann, saw a young woman matching her description in late September 1989, or has information about people who picked up hitchhikers on I-35 near Jarrell is urged to contact authorities.
