Welcome home, Mindy.She has been identified as 17-year-old Mindy Clevidence.Teen found dead in Highland Park alley identified after 27 years
A teen girl found dead in a Highland Park alley 27 years ago finally has her name back: Mindy Clevidence.www.clickondetroit.com
That drawn recon from the beginning of the thread is very close, too. Great work from both artists, especially as they were reconstructing around a close range shotgun wound to the neck area.The NCMEC reconstruction of her looks exactly like the photo of her in the clickondetroit.com article linked above.
She was ID'd this summer.Rest in peace, Mindy.
I found her grandfather's obituary (he passed in September of this year) and she is listed as having pre-deceased him.
From above linkI am so glad to see the ID's of both Highland Park and Christmas doe (Mindy and Kenyatta)!!
“ 'I want Mindy’s family to know that our thoughts and prayers go out to them. We recognize this is a very difficult time and although it brings some closure it also brings forth painful memories and unanswered questions,' said Highland Park Police Chief James McMahon"
The family through NCMEC released this statement. 'We are grateful for all the efforts made by the Highland Police Department and NCMEC in helping us get one step closer in finding out what happened to Mindy and ultimately finding justice for her. We ask for our privacy as we navigate through this difficult time. We ask that anyone who has information regarding Mindy’s death to please contact authorities.'' "
Highland Park Jane Doe identified 27 years after being found in alley
A Highland Park teen who was found murdered in an alley 27 years ago has finally been identified, according to The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.www.wxyz.com
I found obituaries of family members (one from mid-2000's and another a couple years ago) that listed her as surviving them . And where it usually says "from (town), (state)" her's was the only one with a unlisted location. The family wants their privacy so I am not going to mention names or links. IMO Mindy was very much loved. I have known several people that moved out of the house at 17 years old and distanced themself for a while so that could very well be a possibility here.
I wish her family all the best during this time of healing.
Also, PID can be caused by noninfectious and nonsexually transmitted sterile conditions such as severe endometriosis. But id assume that would have been visible during autopsy since it leaves heavy scarring in the pelvic area.I also wanted to speak out on the PID (pelvic inflammatory disease) discovery in her autopsy. Yes, it can be caused by STI's, BUT it can also be caused by (nonsexually transmitted) bacterial vaginal infections that spread to the fallopian tubes. That being said it can be caused by lack of proper medical attention. I am saying this out of respect for Mindy since I have been unable to find any sources anywhere that a STI was confirmed as fact.
