Hopefully they arent cremated
I feel like the extraction of DNA from one of them means that at least they weren't at least until they got her DNA. I wonder why DNA wasn't extracted from UP4388. Did they lose her body? I don't know a reason why one would be cremated and the other not.

Possible they couldn't get a profile off her after so long.
 
Could Gayla Christine Schaper be a possible match for UP4388?

@SimsGuy67 could you make a comparison table for Gayla and UP4388? I would greatly appreciate it.

I do believe Lisa Sprague is UP4389, but I haven't found a way to submit her as the place I submitted to wanted me to call them but I don't think it's possible and I'm not comfortable with it. Does anyone know how?

If Lisa is UP4389, that could mean UP4388 was abducted from the Ventura area. Only think different is age, which is off by a single year.

Elizabeth has never been considered concerning UP4388. I find it surprising considering she disappeared so close to Valenica.

Elizabeth Byron has dentals available, so this possible match could be compared.

Inquiring on whether or not this match passed Doe Network's panel yet. Hopefully we'll get a response soon.
 
There is something I'm worried about though. I hope that the dental records are distinctive enough to either identify Elizabeth or rule her out...

Crazy to see I first suggested Elizabeth nearly a year ago. This could have been submitted a while ago, but I went with Benita, who is ruled out. Even though I "submitted" Lisa as a match to UP4389, I got no response. I'll put her down as unsubmitted for now... Even though I suggested the Leslie sisters on Websleuths, someone actually suggested them to me on Reddit.
