Jane Doe's height and age estimates have been adjusted slightly. She was originally listed as age 25-29 and 5'1 to 5'3. She has been reassessed as possibly slightly younger and taller: 23-27 and 5'2-5'4.

I'm always curious why these small changes are made (was she exhumed and re-examined? was the data originally entered incorrectly, and recently fixed when someone ran across her file?) but I guess there's no way to know. Just posting it here in case it helps anybody in future searches.

Just dropping her in to the mix. Alabama isn't that far. She has a scar on right thigh but doesn't explain where it came from.

Edit: DoeNetwork says its a burn scar.

"Circumstances of Disappearance:
AVERA was arrested on 21.May.1982 and transferred to Searcy Hospital in Mount Vernon, Alabama. This was the last known contact with AVERA and her whereabouts are unknown. It was believed for some time that the hospital and/or their law enforcement personnel had taken measures to list AVERA as missing and/or investigate the matter'; however, it was recently found that this was not the case by family members."
