I'm shocked that neither dpt is being responsive.
Oh gosh, that's incredibly frustrating. And a bit worrisome to considering how many unidentified people Placer County has.Yes I actually did! I spoke with them as well but they essentially said they have no cold case division and kind of blew me off. Berkeley PD gave it more attention than Placer (understandable since they have more resources) but still. How can it not be her + why aren’t they comparing dental records if they have both Jane Doe’s and Wendy’s? And they have the same tattoo in same color and location.
I’m surprised after reading the blog comments that family (especially her daughter) and her friend couldn’t get more action from either police department. Perhaps the records have gone missing. I couldn’t imagine not knowing, but there are comments that she could be missing voluntarily or they know who may have “disappeared” her and are afraid. So, the reasons may be more complex than we can see here. JmoOh gosh, that's incredibly frustrating. And a bit worrisome to considering how many unidentified people Placer County has.
I'm a bit concerned that maybe they aren't comparing dentals because one of the departments may have lost the records. If that's the case then like what other people suggested it might be best to contact the California DOJ.
From my understanding the standard procedure back in the 1970's and 1980's was for departments to send dentals to the DOJ for comparisons within 30 days of a body being found. Hopefully their record keeping is better then individual departments.
If you still have contact with the family it may be good to suggest for them to go the LE themselves. Thank you for trying so hard to get them compared.

It does make me wonder if they were compared and didn’t match but records are not updated. The details seem so similar, but cross tattoos are quite common (although less common in this time period). Someone claiming to be a close friend wasn’t sure if the tattoo was on her chest or hand, I believe, and now this report says the Jane Doe had a flower, not cross? I wish the details were more precise and someone had tried to match her years ago, when memories and records were fresh. JmoI looked into the newspapers articles written on the Placer County Jane Doe from 1990, while Namus has a wider height rage listed, articles mentioned that Doe was estimated to be in her early mid 20's, 5'2-5'3". More evidence pointing to Wendy since the vital statistics match. Mystifying why in the world they aren't being compared, I'm convinced this is her.

Nice! I don't know if you know, but Wendy has brown eyes.View attachment 396663

It's an artificial software so it's pretty hit or miss.Nice! I don't know if you know, but Wendy has brown eyes.
Maybe so, but he chose the most likely solutionIt's an artificial software so it's pretty hit or miss.
I actually did reach out to DOJ missing persons unit. They said they’d “look into this matter” and then nothing. I keep hopefully checking for news every time I think of Wendy. I can’t believe nobody is doing anything (seemingly). I’d be super surprised if Jane Doe was not Wendy honestly.I just read the comments on that Wordpress blog where it seems some of her family have communicated with you. Did you ever try the email address for the California department of justice cold cases I think it was? It really seems like a match huh!
I’m seriously so convinced it is her. I just want someone to tell me it’s not her + then I can let it go but there still hasn’t been a rule out that they’ve released. I don’t understand what is taking so long to run a comparison.I looked into the newspapers articles written on the Placer County Jane Doe from 1990, while Namus has a wider height rage listed, articles mentioned that Doe was estimated to be in her early mid 20's, 5'2-5'3".

I also submitted to the DOJ recently and got your run of the mill response back. I couldn't find an email for the Placer County sheriff's office or coroner. I don't even know who is in charge of this case (if there is any).I’m seriously so convinced it is her. I just want someone to tell me it’s not her + then I can let it go but there still hasn’t been a rule out that they’ve released. I don’t understand what is taking so long to run a comparison.
Perhaps there is a really good suspect in her disappearance and they are developing their case.I’m seriously so convinced it is her.

Wendy's nose is definitely off to the right in one of those high school photos. I think you are on to something.I looked into the newspapers articles written on the Placer County Jane Doe from 1990, while Namus has a wider height rage listed, articles mentioned that Doe was estimated to be in her early mid 20's, 5'2-5'3".
