AZ AZ - Phoenix, BlkFem 20-50, 794UFAZ, homeless, in burned car, Feb'97

[Deulino]

This case seriously haunts me. I wonder for how long she's been a transient. The age gap of 20 to 50 years, that makes her born from 1947 to 1977.

I'm not American but how common is it for transients to move from state to state?

As far as I know it's not very uncommon. I sure wish this lady is going to be identified the coming year.

Actually there was a new article on the DNA Doe Project Phoenix cases (they are working on three cases from Phoenix) and there was an update on Monique, her family is from Mississippi which is indeed far away from Phoenix, Arizona:

Through genealogical research, it was determined Monique’s family is African-American and from Mississippi.

“I have high hopes that her case is solvable once we find the right connections in her family tree,” Binder said.

My wish is that "Monique" can go "home" in 2022, wherever that is.

Thinking of 'Monique'. Touching words by Mr. Stuart Somershoe, cold case detective with Phoenix Police Department.

Monique was also homeless when her partially-burned body was discovered inside a blue Honda Accord near North 24th and East Monroe Streets in early February 1997.

“Monique Jane Doe holds a special place in my heart because it was the first dead body I responded to as a young patrol officer,” Somershoe recalled.

Through genealogical research, it was determined Monique’s family is African-American and from Mississippi.

“I have high hopes that her case is solvable once we find the right connections in her family tree,” Binder < Cairenn Binder, genealogist> said.

Can somebody dig up the poster from DDP where it is stated that she had ties to Copiah County, Missouri @djanga, can you help me out here. Was it posted on their FB site?

Thx @iulia 'Monique' can go home now. I hope she gets a decent funeral now and she's not ending up on the Namus unclaimed pages.

Identified as 48-year-old Monique Boggs, who was born in Mississippi and raised in Detroit, Michigan. Her family knew her as Shirley Jefferson, but she changed her name in the 1980's. Rest in peace Monique.
