Pictured: Face of mystery woman found dead inside bin bag in Liverpool park after scientist reconstruction

The face of an unidentified woman found dead in a bin bag in a Liverpool park has been reconstructed, as police appeal for information to help identify her. 

Officers were called on Friday, August 28 after a member of the public made the grisly discovery in Stanley Park, Anfield, at around 5.25pm.

Merseyside Police officers have knocked on at least 1,000 doors and examined footage from 30 different cameras – but still do not know who she is.

She is thought to be aged between 60 and 80, approximately 5ft 2in tall and of slight build with strawberry blonde hair.

When she was found she was wearing a pink Nike t-shirt. The park where her body was located lies between Liverpool FC's Anfield stadium and Goodison Park, the former home of Everton FC.

Today officers have released a facial reconstruction in collaboration with Liverpool John Moores University.

Investigators told journalists at a press conference on Friday that they had established a full DNA profile of the woman, but there is no match in national databases.

Dental record matches have also failed due to her having no top or bottom teeth.  

Detective Superintendent Rachel Wilson, from Merseyside Police's major incident team, said that the first sighting of the bin bag was on July 13.

She added that 181 possible names have been shared for the woman, but the force has still not been able to identify her.

At this stage, officers believe she was local to Liverpool.  

 In a new appeal, Detective Superintendent Wilson said: 'I am grateful for the expert work that the team at Face Lab have done to develop this image.

'This work takes some time to complete but we believe that we have a representative image of the woman. Now we need to know who she is.

'Do you recognise her or think you have seen her prior to 13 July? Do you have any information which could assist our enquiries? Please come forward and speak to us or if you don't want to speak to the police then contact Crimestoppers anonymously.

'It is vital that we identify this woman and get the answers as to who was responsible for her murder.'

Professor Caroline Wilkinson, director of LJMU's Face Lab, said: 'Face Lab is a centre of excellence relating to craniofacial identification and digital heritage. The Face Lab team have created a facial depiction to inspire recognition and assist the police in the identification of this woman and the forensic investigation into her death. 

'The depiction was produced using our 3D computerised facial reconstruction system following anatomical and anthropometrical standards and the final image was created using photo-editing.'

Visitors to the park said they were 'petrified' and 'shocked' that the woman's body had been found in such a public place. 

James Hannah, 29, told the Daily Mail: 'I run in this park almost every day. It makes me sad that I might have run by her without knowing. I hope they find out who did it soon.

'It won't stop me running through the park.'

Janet Taylor, 55, added: 'It is shocking that the woman has been there for weeks. It is also scary that this happened so close to home. That poor woman!'

Dog walker Mike Willoughby, 43, said: 'Someone must know who she is. It's likely she is someone's mum or grandmother.

'Why has no one missed her? If she has been in the park for so long, someone must be missing her.

'It's frightening that someone was murdered but the saddest part for me is that no one has missed her.'
