Very concerning that she has been missing this long and her husband and daughter didn't report her missing for so long. IMO

This video from Jan 10 is with her husband and daughter.

'Just please come home': Family of missing Joann Dudek beg for her to make contact with them

The friends and family of 64-year-old Joann Dudek fear the worst happened to her and the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office considers her disappearance suspicious. "Just please come home," Joann's 21-year-old daughter, Josephine Dudek, said. "We are doing everything we possibly can."

www.fox10phoenix.com

Her husband says that she was drinking the day before she left. The next morning they noticed that she had taken a couple of changes of clothes, her credit card and passport. He says that she was depressed and wanted to get professional help. He says that she called their daughter shortly after she left and said that she was in rehab, but they haven't been able to track her down. The police consider her disappearance suspicious. Police have checked her financial records and have found no leads.

Watching this video gives me an uneasy feeling.

Missing poster said she had no contact with family since 11/13, but husband is now saying she contacted daughter after leaving for 'rehab'?

White female found 12/22/22 about 20 miles away in El Mirage AZ. UID estimated at 5’7” tall, same as Joann. Hair color listed as brown (not blonde).

These unidentified remains were found behind a remote desert area at a local golf course.

I am here because I just saw Joann's case on the NamUs dashboard. I hope she's safe and not the UID listed above. Confusing situation.

Certainly strange details surrounding her disappearance. I am also hoping Joann ended up in a safe place and this UID turns out to not be her.

 

[AzPistonsGirl]

I'm thinking it is her. El Mirage is sorta not too far from Anthem and the composite looks like her IMO. But the UID has been dead a while, no? putrification noted. But also, broken ribs and pelvis.

 

[Eli9]

Is it possible that she really is in a rehab program? Probably not as there are no financial transactions *sigh*.
I didn't get any sort of vibe from watching the video of the husband but who waits so long to report their loved one missing?

 

[AmandaSkis]

Do we have any information as to who actually reported her missing? Was it the husband? Was it the daughter? Did they file an actual missing person report with the police?

Maricopa County Sheriff's Office posted info about Dudek's disappearance on Dec 28... and it would seem reasonable to think LE would have been reviewing any reports of human remains found in the state for a possible match but ya' never know.

I believe this is her Linkedin account

ETA: I think she also has a Twitter account with her last tweet being posted in August.

Watching this video gives me an uneasy feeling.

Yes, me too. That coupled with the lapse in reporting her missing, make me very uncomfortable.

The video at link below, is an interview with a friend who has known JoAnn for 15 years-

• Sheriff considers her disappearance suspicious.
• LE says they are getting "SOME" cooperation from the family.
• JoAnn's friends are beginning to fear the worst, this friend M is speaking up for her - "she needs to be found".
• JoAnn's daughter (spoke in another interview) has special needs.
• Friend says no effort has been made to find JoAnn. So she started her own search - printed up flyers and put them out in town.
• "No one deserves to disappear and have no one look for them, that's inhumane".
• It wasn't specifically stated, but I think M called MCSO and reported JoAnn missing. Then LE did a welfare check at the house and spoke to husband & daughter. MOO~

I saw that earlier today and almost linked it, glad you did! She was accomplished, has her masters, volunteer groups etc. She was in a real estate investment group which sounded a bit like an infomercial but wonder if she was a woman of means and that had anything to do with her disappearance.
Her appearance has changed quite a bit - no judgement. Moo

ETA
On her facebook she seemed articulate and invested in her friends and family. Where could she be?

 

[Unsolved]

I want to thank her friend "MS" for reporting her as missing when no one else did - she is a true friend indeed.
