This case is very similar to that of Tara Calico, almost the same circumstances... but in different places... I can imagine that she was violently dumped from the kidnapped, raped and murdered bicycle dumped in some garbage dump or remote area... and Life went away out of nowhere for this beautiful 22-year-old girl...
wherever you are you will be better...
either way
rest in peace

It has been mentioned in previous posts that Judy might have one of several young women in that area of Virginia murdered by an unidentified serial killer.

There were some now identified serial killers who lived or operated there about the time Judy went missing.

A few of them are:
Fred H. Coffey
Dennis Bowman
James Allen Kinney
Lloyd Welch

All have threads on Websleuths. Others could be added to the list.

Perhaps a study of their known MO's, victims, travels and locations could help.
