I wonder if they were able to recover a bullet and test it against Caledonia JD? Or if they even know what type of gun was used in the Middlesex JD murder?Richard said:There is not a lot of information available about the following case, but I find some similarities in this case and that of Caledonia Jane Doe. Note that both are of similar description. Both were shot in the back of the head, and both were dumped in rural areas near major roads. The cases are separated by only seven months.
-------------------------------------
The murder weapon in the Caledonia Jane Doe case was a .38 caliber - probably a revolver. "Cali" was shot in the back first, then in the temple.Marie said:I wonder if they were able to recover a bullet and test it against Caledonia JD?

From the newspaper article I linked:
A slug from the murder weapon a .38-caliber handgun was tested against hundreds of others fired from guns seized by police as far away as Europe and Mexico, but to no avail.
Alma disappeared January 1, 1980 - after this JD was found.Eisbar said:What do you think about this one? Alma Violet Root. Just looked as if it could be similar nose and jaw bones
I passed your suggestion on to the detective in charge of Cali's case. He got a fax of Alma's dental records to compare with Cali's teeth. Not a match, unfortunately.Eisbar said:What do you think about this one? Alma Violet Root. Just looked as if it could be similar nose and jaw bones
Just to let you all know Sgt Smith and I are still following up on information developed from isotope testing and the pollen. We await results from another test which has the potential to narrow her geographical origin a little. It may even show she did not grow up in the US or Mexico. Jane Doe's mitochrondrial DNA has also been submitted to the new missing persons DNA database in Texas which will allow a match from any maternal relative should any be found.Mark Franzeo said:Did anyone notice that Monica's file was removed from doenetwork and the mexican website? It just seems like odd timeing concidering the new pollen evidence and the fact that her file was brought to the attention of the people still wroking Cali's case. I hope that this is a good lead into Cali's idenity or that the lead about Monica at the very least turned up her wearabouts if she isn;t indeed Cali.
This is going to sound stupid i know. Cali has highlights in her hair. monica's hair looks very dark. Monica's hair wouldn't "lift" to such a blond color like Cali had. usually you would get a yellow/orange tone or it won't go past a light brown. that of course shouldn't rule her out.Mark Franzeo said:Did anyone notice that Monica's file was removed from doenetwork and the mexican website?
