Ok age is off and no mention of tattoo, but height weight and hair color match, also timeline would work.
Hey Lins,
I'm not sure about this one...Here's what I'm thinking:
Beverly was 32 in June 1980 (time period matches) when she left her children with the babysitter and headed to a doctor's appointment....hmmm...wonder if Beverly was pregnant? I'm now imagining a botched medical procedure-- and wondering if Beverly's doctor was ever identified and questioned? ---sorry, my ADD is really showing.
England's weight is listed at 125 or 145 lbs compared to 103 for Arroyo Could BE have lost 20-40 pounds in 3 months? possible, I guess. I couldn't do it; but sure, why not. Maybe if I were kidnaped and starved?
Height is within an inch of our AGJD (63 inches for Beverly compared to 62 measured).
BE's hair color is described as red/auburn; AGJD is described as light brown/blonde or ginger/strawberry blonde.
Some facial similarities: face shape, nose may be close, larger bottom lip and large wide eyes, maybe a widow's peak. Beverly carries weight in her cheeks and neck, so this is not similar. And Beverly's cheeks appear to be high, a feature that would be more pronounced if she were thinner. Sure wish that Beverly had one clear, colored photo available. Dental description fails to mention spacing between 7&8 (like AGJD) or if she still had her wisdom teeth.
Big age difference is the problem -- age is usually determined by bone growth plates, so while a few years outside of a range might be easy to understand, 8-12 years is probably too much of a stretch. Medical documents say that AGJD wasn't much older than 16; the top age listed for her is 24.
Another question for me has to do with lack of evidence that AGJD ever had given birth to a child (cervix appearance is like a slit); England obviously did have children.
Not concerned about the lack of a tat; AGJD's tat may have been self inked (def not professional) and was on the inside of her right forearm - not necessarily noticeable.
A good thing is that Beverly's NamUs page indicates that she has fingerprints available -- & my Clark County friend is a fingerprint expert. So if he thinks this is a solid possible, he could compare based on prints pretty quickly.
That's my take. If you all want me to submit Beverly England to Rick, I am glad to do so.
You never know, AGJD's initial investigation and autopsy was conducted during the high tech time of polaroids, and with the common belief that she would be identified very quickly. She seemed to be well cared for and was found within 24 hours of death. There was no reason to think that her family wouldn't recognize her. What one might consider a long shot could be the answer to giving this girl back her name. :twocents:
