Identified! TN - Knox Co, 'Shotgun Jane Doe' WhtFem 607UFTN, 21-30, Jun'87 - Tena Marie Gattrell

[chaddylex]

Very strong facial resemblance. SJD wasn't wearing glasses AFAIK, but that's probably neither here nor there.

There is no mention of the prior injuries or prior tattoo, or childbirth history; but I would still submit just to make sure.

I thought that too about the no mention of prior injuries or the other things, but they haven't identified her yet and have over 230 ruleouts.

I emailed Jerry Brown the Case Manager listed on Janet's NamUs page (and I copied you, I made the pics bigger and wow do I see a resemblance) Jerry has always gotten back to me on other cases I submitted to him in the past.

Jerry emailed me back, he is going to have the possible match looked into.

 

[wannabeasupersleuth]

I though this one was worth a shot. Not on the rule out list. The BH tattoo could have been the result of her getting married after she went missing....

I realize the dates are off, but there's a facial resemblance - could Christi have just been so afraid that she decided to disappear???

I'm on my cell; will have to look in my files next chance I have. Mary Jo has DNA according to NamUs

https://www.findthemissing.org/en/cases/3974/1/

 

[chaddylex]

It's been over a year since I submitted Janet Knife to Jerry Brown at NamUs. https://www.findthemissing.org/en/cases/23988/15/ He told me he would look into the possible match. I have never heard back so I emailed the new NamUs administrator, Amy Dobbs to see if she has been looked into. Janet hasn't been listed on the UID's rule out list, so I figured it was worth a shot to check into it.

I already received an email back from Amy. They are still waiting on Janet Knife's DNA to come back. They are looking into the possible match.

 

[rainwater]

While we wait on Janet Knife's test results, what about Alma Louise O'Con? Alma disappeared from Caddo Parish (Shreveport) LA in June 1981. She was last seen by a guard on hospital grounds. She would be a little older than SJD estimated age, but height weight, eye, all are in range. Her MP photos look like SJD recon. Dentals available, DNA 'initial inquiry underway". Alma's MP NAMUS page was last updated in 2011. Her hair is listed as brown on one link and black on another link. The links also offer conflicting info on what she was wearing when she disappeared. Alma is not listed on the SJD ruleout list.

[pukasonqo2]

if she has plates and screws in her ankle, could their serial numbers be used to ID her?

[rainwater]

IIRC, back then metal plates did not have serial numbers that could be tracked. SJD's plate was stamped with the manufacturer's name ("Synthes") but no serial numbers.

I feel she may have been killed during her stay, someone got rid of her body. Even with a black & white photo her hair looks too dark

IIRC, back then metal plates did not have serial numbers that could be tracked. SJD's plate was stamped with the manufacturer's name ("Synthes") but no serial numbers.

IIRC Pearly had spoken to the manufacturer, it was done within a few years of her being found. A search of the thread should bring it up

Ok, I know the dates are off but I REALLY think this woman looks like shotgun; especially the chin and teeth. Let me know what you think, kids!

I'm just waking up & have to get ready for a Dr appt but I'm almost positive she was turned in. Back then dates weren't always accurate. She's in NamUs, DNA is not finished. Gonna see if I can grab our rule out list

 

[sam spade]

Hi Roselvr,

She has NOT been excluded, according to Namus. 237 rule-outs are now listed for this woman. Crazy; just crazy.

Sorry I was rushed & was not clear. I have a secret FB group where we've sleuth SJD. I could have sworn we turned her in 2 years ago because we felt that dates may not be accurate but I'm not seeing it on my submitted nor on my ruled out list.

Her DNA is being processed, did you turn her in? If you want I can have Rainwater do it.
