Amber Guzman's NamUs page (MP60634) has also been removed. I think she may be a match to this Jane Doe. She was last seen in Pensacola, FL on 06/28/2019. At 38, she is younger than the lower range for the UID, but in the second photo on her Charley Project page it look like she is missing some of her teeth, which matches the description in the UID's NamUs page:
"Loss of maxillary teeth, ovoid lesion in palatine process of the right maxilla, and osteophytic/nodular activity of the right hip. These ailments are suggested to have been medically treated or treatment may have been sought after."

Confirmed as Amber Guzman at the MEDICAL EXAMINERS COMMISSION MEETING in October 2023
www.fdle.state.fl.us
In December of 2019 skeletal remains were discovered in Pensacola, Florida. The remains were discovered by an individual living in a storage facility adjacent to the drainage culvert where the decedent was located. Law enforcement had advised that there was a known transient camp nearby. In January 2019 the remains were transferred for analysis to Dr. Winburn, Forensic Anthropologist with the University of West Florida and the District 1 Medical Examiner’s OfficeD1MEO released a left rib to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office (ECSO) to submit to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) for DNA analysis. The District One Medical Examiner’s Office contacted ECSO in October 2020, discovering that the rib bone had not yet been submitted to FDLE; after formal request from the District 1 Medical Examiner’s Office, the rib bone was immediately sent by ECSO to FDLE. Unfortunately, FDLE was not conducting testing of mitochondrial DNA at this time and the District 1 Medical Examiner’s Office was referred to the University of North Texas Center for Human Identification. In April 2021, the District 1 Medical Examiner’s Office was advised that UNT was no longer accepting new cases. In March 2023, a NamUs database search of local missing persons from the area was conducted and compared to all District 1 Medical Examiner’s Office unidentified cases. A potential match was identified. The “believed to be” (antemortem) radiographs (x-rays) and the postmortem radiographs of the unidentified skeletal remains were compared and reviewed by Dr. Oleske, Interim District Medical Examiner. Following additional consultation with Dr. Winburn, it was determined this case was a good candidate for identification using the Rapid DNA ANDE identification system recently brought into service by the District 1 Medical Examiner’s Office. Familial DNA comparison was made using a buccal swab submitted by the missing person’s family and the unidentified skeletal remains. The results confirmed the familial relationship with 99.99% certainty, and skeletal features support that the identification of the remains as that of Amber Guzman. The District 1 Medical Examiner’s Office, after so many fruitless efforts, was able to provide long-awaited closure to the decedent’s family.
