Monique
Monique was also homeless when her partially-burned body was discovered inside a blue Honda Accord near North 24th and East Monroe Streets in early February 1997.
“Monique Jane Doe holds a special place in my heart because it was the first dead body I responded to as a young patrol officer,” Somershoe recalled.
Through genealogical research, it was determined Monique’s family is African-American and from Mississippi.
“I have high hopes that her case is solvable once we find the right connections in her family tree,” Binder < Cairenn Binder, genealogist> said.
