Map of where she was found is attached in Namus and shows this UID was located to the west side of Route 10 just south of Phoenix. (For some reason I can't copy/paste the attachment here).

I'm wondering if this could be Sheila Annette Pauley since her missing dates are not really known, just "1980" (see Carl's post #2 at the WS thread, he had contact with a family member).

Or maybe Debra Adams from TX who was known to move around and only had periodic contact with her family from mid-1989. Height, weight, hair colour match www.websleuths.com/forums/threads/tx-debra-adams-20-30-abilene-31-mar-1989.369823/page-2

By looking at the map it would make sense if she was in a form of transport that she - or the person who killed her - might have been leaving Phoenix and headed to Tucson and beyond (route 10 goes all the way to the east). Then dumped her off to the right hand side of the road and continued onwards. If she originated west then Route 10 comes from LA through to Phoenix? So maybe she was from CA.

There is no description of any clothing in NamUs. PMI was only 1 day, so was she left without clothing? Why no reconstruction after all this time?

Bumping up case.

Moving case back up. This would be an interesting one for genetic geneology, if there are remains still available(?)
