It might be, but the time could also be a factor.You're damn right it's about "damn time".
Maybe the reward will be the determining factor for someone to now come forward.
Not everyone or every sex worker wants to get involved with a criminal investigation .
Today's presser was bitter-sweet.
Some who were in the area at the time might have left in the intervening years.
Some might have died.
Some might be in prison. (I imagine they will reach out to prisons with this recon, as they did when investigating RH.)
Some might have got out of bad or abusive situations or be in recovery from addiction and feel safe to talk whereas at the time of Asian Doe's disappearance or discovery, they didn't.
Some may have seen the original recon and not recognised them. I think the new one has a much higher likelihood of being accurate. It was done by NCMEC, directly working from the skull, and many of the NCMEC artists are top of the game with recons right now (not exclusively, Kelly from GBI absolutely gives them a run for their money, as do our very own Carl and Victoria.)
