It’s around 9 a.m. on November 8, 1989.
A heavy fog across Central Massachusetts is finally lifting and a tragedy begins to reveal itself.
A retired construction worker is traveling along Chocolog Road in Uxbridge when he spots a large object along the road opposite of the Route 146 south bound exit ramp.
He discovers it’s an open sleeping bag, and it appears something is packed inside of it.
Police roll back the front of the sleeping bag to find the body of 17-year-old Jessica Jones inside.
Jessica had been beaten to death and stabbed multiple times.
Her body was stuffed inside the sleeping bag and dumped along Chocolog Road.
Nearly 35 years later, Jessica’s murder remains unsolved.
