Seeking TheLost
5/3/2013: I must share with you our new page People Seeking People may have solved the case of Caledonia Jane Doe (left) found murdered in New York during 1979 posted on Seeking TheLost a number of months ago. Here's how:
Yesterday Grace Murray posted a photo of her sister Linette Marie Miller (right), DOB 8/30/1961 in Brooklyn, New York, who she hadn't seen or heard from since 1977. Others and I researched the case and determined she must be deceased or moved out of the country because there was no data on her.
When asked, Grace indicated Linette had never been reported missing. "Linette lived with our mother Grace Miller until Grace's death in March 1977. After that she lived with me for a few months then went to live with another sister for a few months. She then went hitch hiking out west to visit an uncle then living in Idaho. The friend hitching with her made it to the uncles house but she said Linette went with a trucker," Grace wrote on People Seeking People.
Caledonia Jane Doe had been dumped about 20 feet (6.1 m) from the south side of U.S. Route 20 and 0.5 miles from the intersection of U.S. Route 20 with New York State Route 5.
Truckers interviewed by police reported having seen the girl hitchhiking and catching rides prior to her death. One trucker stated that he saw Caledonia Jane Doe trying to hitchhike to Boston, Massachusetts the night before she died."
Linette looked familiar to me so I decided to look at unidentified Jane Does on www.namus.gov and quickly realized why when I laid eyes on the thumbnail of Caledonia Jane Doe. I was stunned and filled with a flood of emotions from the realization I may have found Linette.
Grace was informed and did not deny this Jane Doe could be her sister and will be filing a missing person case tomorrow as well as contacting the caseworker for Caledonia Jane Doe's Namus case to discuss submitting DNA for comparison.
Thankfully, Caledonia Jane Doe's remains were exhumed for the purpose of obtaining DNA so a comparison can be made.
This case has received national attention, appearing on such television shows as America's Most Wanted.
Edit: Remeber that SeeKing the lost has a tendency to just jump to a conslusion, he/she has been wrong many many times before
I saw the "Seeking the Lost" post today, too, and immediately thought to let folks here know. It's hard to tell based on one old grainy photograph, but I don't think Linette looks much like Cali, unfortunately. Still, there's no harm in ruling her out for certain. I haven't read all the posts in that thread, but it's extremely irresponsible for the admin of "Seeking the Lost" to be throwing around accusations without evidence, and if there is evidence, it should be brought to the authorities, not discussed on a Facebook forum.

So this case has been analyzed by countless FBI and local law enforcements, been posted on television shows such as A.M.W, been sleuthed by talented people on this very site for a number of years, and it is solved just like that. I agree it is irresponsible to post information that may or may not be true on facebook. If it is believed this is Cali (which I can most likely promise, it is not) It should have been brought to the local authorities before ever claiming to have solved one of the most prolific UID cases (if not the most) on record. Now for the photo, I agree it looks nothing like Cali and can bet with a degree of certainty it is not her. I know the post meant well, but that is a big claim and you better have the chops to back it up or this forum will chew you up and spit you out (that is a joke). I know many people care very deeply about this case and I hope someday it will be solved, I hope I am wrong and that is Cali but it should have been known before posting anywhere.
They know nothing about the case; they're quoting the wiki page.
I can't even imagine how Linette's sister felt!
I thought it was the picture released that doe has and yes I don't have a link but the detective in charge of the case said yes it has been enhanced she was shot on the right side iircWARNING this is a link to a morgue photo. It has been posted before but just warning in case anyone doesn't want to see it. Seeking the Lost says this photo has been enhanced because there was a gun shot to the front of her head? Is this true? Is it changed at all? I thought it was a morgue ID photo, not changed. Does anyone know?

Looking at the side photo of Cali, you can see her left ear and compare it to Linette's left ear.
Cali's earlobe has much more droop than Linette's. The bottom of Linette's earlobe runs horizontally from its connection point. There is very little droop below the connection point.
