I am so glad that Leoria has her name back. This was one of the very first UID cases that I learned about around 14 years ago. It's sad to hear that she likely lost her life shortly after what should have been the start of a beautiful chapter of her life (starting her 20s) and that her daughter...
Ran over by 15 vehicles -- this UID's body was probably in very poor condition after all of that trauma (not trying to be graphic, but I would imagine that it would have been in several pieces, although it seems like all parts of the body were recovered in some way). NamUS does explicitly...
Wow; thank you so much for sharing. In hindsight, this makes sense. I was thinking about this case and that of the black Jane Doe that was also listed as being discovered on May 21, 1973, which I posted about on here several years ago.
I also did a bit of digging and discovered a bit more...
The "circumstances of recovery" section on the UID's NamUS profile consists of solely the following:
"Skeletal remains of a young child were found in a trash can in a wooded area."
What a sad epitaph to such a short (and most likely sorrowful) life.
The circumstances under which this body...
Today makes 25 years. I still can't believe that it's been nearly a decade since this thread has started.
Each year on the anniversary of Jason's disappearance, I always hope that an article or some other update is released about the case providing some additional insight beyond what we...
Bumping.
Here are some additional thoughts that I've had about this case, which I am not sure that I have shared here yet:
The fact that the vehicle passed over her twice - could it be possible that the person initially hit our Jane Doe was driving their vehicle forward (perhaps while rushing...
Today is Jason's 42nd birthday.
To @Jason Saul's brother, I sincerely hope that you and your family receive some closure soon. I can't imagine how you all are feeling, especially as more and more birthdays pass without the person being responsible for whatever happened here being brought to...
Yesterday made 41 years since this girl was found. Like I've said before, this could be more than three times the length of time that she actually spent alive. It's hard to imagine that absolutely nobody out there is looking for her. I can't help but think that her family is out of the country...
Wow; if he really died shortly after being last seen in late '79-early '80, then it took nearly a decade for his remains to wash ashore.
I'm surprised that they were able to get any distinguishing characteristics (like the facial hair / body hair) in the first place, but the reconstructions...
Today makes 24 years. It's also been 8 1/2 years since this thread has started and we've all "fallen down the rabbit hole" of this strange and confusing case. Hoping for answers for Jason this year.
I wonder if they will release a PM photo of this UID.
The postmortem interval (7 days) appears to be somewhat on the long side for her to be considered "recognizable" upon discovery. I would think that after a week of being exposed to the Mississippi elements in September, she would be pretty...
Possibly unpopular opinion, but I've always wondered if this was truly a random crime. This murder does seem to be particularly hateful, at least in my opinion. Maybe she was hitchhiking up until a certain point, which is when she somehow managed to establish contact with a person or people that...
Bumping for the UID. We are nearing six months since he was found.
Also, since I forgot to include it in the OP, here is the link to the NamUS profile.
Wow. Luis was only a junior in high school in '76 (he would have been around two years behind, but guess it's hard to stay on top of school when you're out committing felonies on a regular basis). It makes me wonder where his parents were, but at the same time, I think there's a good chance that...
