I'm new at this, so do you just write the case contacts on NAMUS and say, "hey, I'm an amateur at Websleuths. Saw posting for a UID and the teeth reminded me of a missing person I knew in HS. Wondering if this UID has been compared to her?"

Height and weight are off, but I was thinking of Kristen Modafferi because of the teeth, here's her websleuths page: http://www.websleuths.com/forums/showthread.php?46-CA-Kristen-Modafferi-18-San-Francisco-23-June-1997 Here's the doe network page for her with lots of pictures...

This body was completely charred, yes? How much can that affect the height and weight estimates? I ask because the teeth... they are reminding me of a missing person from 1997 in CA - I knew her personally, and she had really nice teeth like those in recon. This particular person is taller at...

I'm not verified, but I am an attorney, and I practiced briefly as an Assistant DA in Georgia, though mostly in Juvenile Court. It was while ago, but in many jurisdictions the public indictments do use initials only when the victim is a minor. It seems silly in this case, as practically the...

And... here's the closure. DNA confirmed the skeletal remains are Miller and Jackson, and sources say evidence points to an auto accident, no alcohol or foul play involved: http://www.ksfy.com/story/25250181/case-closed-union-county-remains-match-teens-missing-since-1971 Rest in peace, young...

This is going off topic, but I have student loans from law school - mine are all federal. My husband has some from undergrad. When I consolidated my own loans about 9 years ago, I had just gotten married. At the time, I asked if my husband and I should combine our student loans together into one...

Holy cow this is a nasty piece of work. Thank goodness the perps appear to be idiots who purchased all the goods needed to commit the crime in one fell swoop, at a national chain store with sophisticated surveillance on an AMEX, no less. I guess getting cash from an ATM was an extra step they...

I also live in the county where this occurred. I read several articles about her on a local level. I think this case didn't get as much publicity for a couple of other reasons: (1) the police had someone is custody on unrelated charges quite early. I think they knew what had happened but were...

I always pay attention to GA cases, since I live here and all... I've not had a chance to delve into publicly-available information on Anita beyond a simple google search, but it appears the poor woman didn't have an easy go at life. Bad car crash, sister dead at age 10, daughter of a...

I live just North of Atlanta and this thread caught my eye (plus two missing adults, it's strange). Ms. Joseph's COD was drowning, I don't know much about the geography of the body of water where she was found, but it sure sounds like someone knew she couldn't swim and tossed her in. A...

Kaliste: now, in my late-30s, I would absolutely consider someone in that situation to be in danger and would call authorities. When I was a 21 year old student at UNC-CH? Nope, sorry to say you encounter people in that condition all the time in and around college towns, especially in the Greek...

This case caught my eye as I am from NC and went to college at UNC-CH. Consequently, I've spent a lot of time in and around Raleigh. A few things: 1. Until we know more, let's not give the Shaw U. students any blame for not calling the authorities. When I was in college, I'd call...

I agree, Georgiagirl, those shoes are a newer style. We're not looking at someone from the late-90s or early 2000s.

astridxx - That's bad reporting but I believe by "in there" the reporter means the woods. Both the MSM and Patch article refer to the body being located in the woods.

I live in the Suwanee area, so Justin Gaines case is always on my mind when a body is found. Everything I can find indicates he was wearing flip flops at the time of his disappearance. I've read about the Cox case, and it sounds as if LE knows he is deceased and pretty much knows who is...

I'm in metro Atlanta, so this location is within 45 minutes of me. I wish we knew what kind of red Adidas. The shoe could tell us a lot - are they red high-top Adidas (most popular among African-American young men), running shoe-type (this would open up the demographic a bit) or the...

This is really amazing: http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2013/07/19/lucy-johnson-missing-found-yukon_n_3623319.html The husband left behind apparently waited a number of years to report her missing, which cast suspicion. Glad the daughter knows what happened to her mother, and I hope she can meet...

My first submission on UID forum - be kind to me. This one seems so darn solveable. What about this guy, Mark Hudson from New York, missing since May '88? He's on the younger end, only 27, but he had over 15 tattoos when he disappeared. Described in profile are two tattoos on his right arm...

SSA - I've only read the first 2 pages of this thread and the last page, so I'm admittedly not fully informed, but... something got me thinking. Do you get the impression the police won't let you view the evidence photos from Schaefer's home for legal reasons? The state should be protected from...

So I'm just jumping in here... I've done a ton of reading about Israel Keyes. He horrifies me, but as the victim of an attempted abduction in NC almost 20 years ago, I read about these creeps to be aware. Anyway, here's a problem with IK and Lauren Spierer. IK has said that the Currier case...
