Bumping.

Such an intriguing case. I wish there was more information as to how the author thinks land deeds are linked to her disappearance.

I heard back from Amy Dobbs the case manager for the unidentified remains. She stated "Thank you for your email. A review of the DNA indicates that both have STR and mito profiles available. So far CODIS has not reported back any association between the two samples." Disappointing but at...

I got an e-mail back from Amy Dobbs on the Judy Martins comparison. She wrote "Thank you for your email. A review of the DNA indicates that both have STR and mito profiles available. So far CODIS has not reported back any association between the two samples."

Where did you submit your tip and how long did it take for them to get back to you? I submitted the possibility of Judy Martin for this set of remains on the Doe Network. I haven't heard anything back other than the original messages there hadn't been a link before but they were now going to...

Hi there, I'm new to the site and I hope I'm posting in the correct space. I understand that we are not supposed to contact family members of crime victims for obvious reasons -- however are we able to direct family members of missing persons who are looking for help to this site?

First of all Latavia, I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine what you and your family has had to go through. Secondly - have you guys been able to rule out these unidentified remains? https://identifyus.org/en/cases/653 The weight, height, missing date range, and age at death all matches...

This came in this morning; Hello ____, Thank you for the suggested match. I don't show any comparison of these having been done so I will have our panel look at it. If is proven to be a positive match, I will contact you further. Best Regards, Mary Bell Tips & Potential Match Coordinator...

I think that just means that the DNA has been sequenced. When I did DNA testing at University we always said that the tests were completed when we finished with them. On the Nameus page aka identifyus.org there is an exclusions list and her name isn't on it. I ended up going ahead and...

No - I wanted to see if anyone thought this was viable before I tried putting this through.

I'm quite new to this - and I'm not sure if I'm overstepping boundaries but since you mentioned dumping the body near an exit ramp is there any way her remains could be Case #4842? https://identifyus.org/en/cases/4842 To get from Kent, Ohio to Wayne County, Indiana you have to go through...

Bumping. I combed through Canada's unidentified - only two that even came close were http://www.missingadults.ca/viewUAcase.php?case=ON-UF-1984-12-00086&Gender=Female&DateOfDiscoveryStart=YYYY-MM-DD&DateOfDiscoveryEnd=YYYY-MM-DD&&StartAt=0&EndAt=10&CurCase=4 and...

It's most likely already been done - but has anyone tried to map/calculate based on temperature, possible injuries, etc (Basically all variables of that night) how far she could have gotten on foot? That would make a search for her remains easier. If you recall Mariam Makhniashvili (Toronto...

Bumping - just stumbled upon this case. Wish that there were more concrete answers.
