Amy Billig has been ruled out by NamUs.I contacted the NAMUS contact with Amy Billig's info; she said she would look into it and pass it on to the investigating agencies.
I always assumed (probably totally incorrectly), that people who live in warm/humid climates would show a quicker rate of decomp? I'm not a scientist, so I dont know that it's true. I only base that on the climate I currently live in, as I feel like im melting in the sun. I wonder how they determine the rate? For example, wouldnt someone from say... California where it's quite warm decompose more quickly than someone from Canada where the climate is cooler?Ok, so I'm going to list people it could be based on geographics and comparison to the recon. How many years does it take for skeletal remains start decomposing? The NamUs page says that they only recovered partial skeletal parts. I 'm asking so I have a general date range to look through, so I don't suggest someone from 1970 if this UID had only been dead for <5 years.
Thanks carbuff, sorry!That looks like a good start, and a good possible match. You need to look at all her pages (Namus, Charley, Doenet, Porchlight, state). Google for news articles from when she went missing to see if you can find more about the circumstances.
It's always a good idea to include a comparison of the missing person so we can see what matches and what doesn't. Adding the links to her pages makes it a lot easier for other people to check out the conclusions.
Thank you! For whatever reason, I can't seem to access any of the Charley project, so thats very helpful.Wow, that's a crazy case. She, her sister, and the sister's boyfriend are all missing?
Here's the sister's Namus: The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)
Charley Project shows a different picture for Rebecca: Rebecca Rodriguez – The Charley Project The Charley Project blog includes this information:
"Anyway, the person said the only photo that I (and NamUs) have for Rebecca is wrong. Its a school yearbook photo and there were two girls named Rebecca Rodriguez in that class. The person sent me a scan of the yearbook page with the two Rebeccas side by side. Ive changed my Rebeccas photo accordingly. I thought I should let people know this."

It is an interesting case. Now youve submitted this photo, i'm not sure they really match. Thanks!
The main thing that gives me pause is that according to Namus, both Rebecca and the UID have DNA available, so it ought to have been picked up by the system if there was a match.
Not necessarily. I e-mailed NamUs a couple years ago about this and was told that the system doesn't automatically compare identifiers. It does automatically generate a list of potential matches who fit the person's description, but a comparison has to be requested manually.
