https://www.namus.gov/UnidentifiedPersons/Case#/65578/details This John Doe was found in Gulfport, Mississippi on June 16, 1979. Michael is not on the ruleout list for comparison, and while there is a considerable distance, it's not unreasonable to wonder if he traveled down there during the...

Update! After many phone calls, emails, and jurisdictions, I did finally get the cold case detective working on Redbud's case. He said he is currently working with the ME's office in making an identification, and they are 'pretty certain'. He said the name they are working to confirm is not...

The medical examiner is the one who estimated her postmortem interval, dying likely in the late 50s. Other than the interval, there's nothing to indicate she couldn't have died EARLIER than the 50s. There's not much to go on, clue-wise. We have the neighborhood, her unique teeth overlap/pattern...

He lived in Gates, and a ten minutes drive from the motel where Sharon's van was found.

Little update: Called and followed up yesterday, left a message, and then received a call back today. Marissa told me that the better avenue would be to make a report with the sheriff's dept. I said I contacted the ME's because that was the contact info listed. All so confusing! So anyway, I'll...

This would be such a double edged sword - while it would be great to have answers about who Redbud JD is, it would be absolutely devastating for the family of William to know he didn't actually drown and this was his true ending. And agreed about mental illness and mental health crises. They...

Have made a call in to the ME's office listed, and after being transferred twice, I'm now waiting for a call back from a superior who can access the file and take the report. And @ChatteringBirds you're right, it definitely makes me think of the man faking his drowning death from the news last...

3383DMTX - William Clark Crumpacker While William's weight is significantly different from the Doe's, the rest aligns - height(ish), wears glasses, hazel eyes, age, but physically the resemblance is SO strong to me (if he were to have grown a mustache and full beard in the 2+ months since his...

I'm set to have a phone chat with an investigative reporter from a local news channel later this week! I emailed her, following seeing her keynote a true crime expo I attended recently, to mention Sharon's story and see if she would be interested in discussing it. She, unsurprisingly, was not...

Nice find, not familiar with her. I'd be curious to know if she Rhonda had any gold fillings, like the IJD was found to have. However, since it is believed the IJD had been deceased for around 30 years, and buried before the housing tract was built (1964), it's not likely Rhonda could be our...

Haha and glad it was helpful! Definitely have to dig through articles to find the more specific details like that. It was reported she was raped and killed her near the expressway, and then drove the 2 miles to Stearns Rd and rolled her body into a ditch. Ugh, tragic. But I agree, seeing it on a...

No I totally know what you're saying. And same for me that everyone from Perinton says they're from Fairport, even though it's technically Perinton. Like you, where people say they're from Churchville or Chili, when actually it's considered the bigger encompassing Riga. Churchville and Chili are...

It's great you brought this point up. I grew up similarly, with Fairport/Perinton being the same situation. Village of Fairport, town of Perinton: village of Churchville, town of Riga. And like you, everyone who grew up in Perinton just says they're from Fairport (because of the school...

*bump* for Sharon on this Mother's Day. I think of her often, and am always trying to find new avenues of investigation and information. Sadly, her daughter Amber passed back in December, so she is reunited with one of her children, albeit, very prematurely. As more time passes since her...

*bump* Any news yet on that 'viable lead'?
