Reward Increased In Texas Cold Case: Jackie Foster Found In Drainage Canal

The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) has increased the reward for information that leads to an arrest for the murder of Jackie Foster.

Jackie Foster was 29 on September 6th, 1990, when she was reported missing in Abeline, Texas. Two days after she was reported missing, her body was found in a drainage canal by fishermen.

Jackie (pictured above) was last seen at a truck stop in Cisco, Texas, attempting to get a ride to a family member's house in Los Angeles, California. On September 8th, 1990, the fishermen made the gruesome discovery.

Her body was wrapped in heavy canvas tarpaulin*, clothed in a shirt, pink sweatpants, and no shoes.
