League City Jane and Janet Doe Finally have Names
Jane Doe, the body of an unknown female was discovered in the oil fields at the end of Calder Road, in League City, TX on February 2d, 1986. Her name is Audrey Lee Cook. Cook was born on Nov. 25, 1955 in Memphis, Tennessee.
She lived in Channelview and Houston between 1976-1985. In 1979, she worked as a mechanic for a golf cart company in Houston. A year later, she worked for Harrison Equipment Company, also in Houston.
Cook worked for Balloon Affair in 1981. At some point, she worked as a mechanic for National Rent-A-Car.
Cook's family says the last time they heard from her was December 1985.
Cook was about 5'5" to 5'8" in height.
It's believed she was 30 years old, and she may have died six weeks to six months before her remains were found.
Janet Doe, who was found on September 8, 1991, the skeletal remains of an unknown female were discovered in the oil fields located at the end of Calder Road, in League, City, TX. Her name is Donna Prudhomme
Prudhomme was born on April 23, 1957 in Port Arthur, Texas. Between 1982-1985, she lived in the Beaumont and Port Arthur areas.
In 1986, she moved to Austin. Two years later, Prudhomme moved to Seabrook and lived in an apartment complex.
She later lived in Nassau Bay, Texas in 1991. Police believe she frequently went to bars on Nasa Road 1.
Prudhomme was last seen in July 1991 and was believed to be 34 years old at the time of her death.
Authorities are now asking for the public's help to provide information about both women and hopefully, help find their killer.
Neither of the women were officially reported missing.
"There's a reason this is called 'The Killing Fields,' there's a reason," said Tim Miller, the founder and director of Texas EquuSearch.
Miller started the organization after his daughter Laura was found dead in the same field in 1986.
"Laura was found right there and no grass has ever grown in that spot. No grass has ever grown where Laura's body was found," Miller said.
Laura, who was 16 at the time, was found on Feb. 2, 1986, just 17 months after she went missing from a nearby corner store. Investigators also found Jane Doe, who is Cook, the same day, laying nearby.
It's the same field, on Calder Road near I-45 in League City, where Heidi Fye was found two years earlier. For Miller, the thick brush became ground zero for his search to find their killer.
"I would come out here at 2 a.m. I would come out here at noon. I don't think there's an hour or a minute in the day at some time or another that I wasn't here. I wanted to see who was coming in and out. I was obsessed with this place," Miller said.

EDIT: I think it's misleading to call these 30 murders the "Texas Killing Fields" but indeed several are connected, IMHO. Additionally, actually they only listed 27 victims on Wikipedia not 30
CR = Calder Road
According to published reports 5 murders became known as the "Texas Killing Fields" There are 11 of the victims named "The Eleven" killed in Galveston, TX Bay area
I think it's important to just not call these murders the "Texas Killing Fields" and look at the victims found next to each other and victims found together that were double abductions. A killer usually will commit his first murder a good distance from his home. Afterwards he typically operates were he lives and/or works that's what we also need to look at
