I really wish we had more info. They found blood in a public bathroom where they thought she had slit her wrists. Did they test and confirm the blood matched our doe. Also there are conflicting reports on eye color and the 2 sketches look nothing alike. I did not see that she had goggles. That is very interesting.
I also questioned the blood in the bathroom. I would like to know they confirmed it was her blood. The only scenario I can think of regarding her going to the beach is that - she wanted to wash the blood off her body.
With no blood trail - did she bind her wrists to soak the blood flow and to hide her wrists? Maybe she was wearing a pullover and used that?
If she didnt want to be noticed she would have hidden her wrists. Surely seeing a mature woman bleeding from the wrists would have sparked some response from someone if she was seen.
Maybe she went into the water fully to wash off the blood from her clothes - I didn't see any blood stains on her swimming costume - maybe it was all washed off in the water.
and regarding the different profiles of the UID - which one is correct?
These variables are making it difficult.
The age, weight, height and eye colour is different for the SLED - and for NAMUS

Is there anyway to get confirmation on what is right - and get a uniform profile for the UID over the webs sites?
Id like to see confirmation regarding the suicide angle - and the blood in the bathroom confirmed it was hers - also the marks around her neck.
The South Carolina Law Enforcement page has this contact information -
Contact: Myrtle Beach Police Department at 1-843-918-1382 or SLED at 1-803-737-9000 and ask for the forensic artist on duty.
If the eye colour is brown instead of blue, possibly they could change her (UID's) eye colour on the poster?
