Looks like Connie’s close relative uploaded a DNA kit to gedmatch, sounds as a fast solve! Her highest match from the DDP’s spreadsheet was over 400 cM

I really wish they’d update the site more frequently. The main case page seems to almost always be broken now and the last update for the spreadsheet was still in June
The updated information with surnames of interest of Julie Doe, she is one of the DDP’s three oldest unsolved cases (two others are Kings County Jane Doe and Ventura County Jane Doe)

I may be reading too deeply into this but would that mean that Ventura County Jane Doe and Kings County Jane Doe are identified?
At first I actually thought the same, but no, a week ago Carl Koppelman confirmed on her thread that Ventura County Jane Doe has not been identified, they are still working with her distant cousins and though have some progress, she has not been identified. I think she is one of the three oldest cases still not solved (unless Kings County Jane Doe has been identified)
The pending case page is just blank
