Refreshing the thread...

Seems far too coincidental that her car was found not far from her boyfriend's place. I wonder how thoroughly he was questioned? Sad that her case hasn't had much publicity.

Barbara's NamUs profile has been modified on Nov 11th. She doesn't have any rule outs/exclusions listed.

Here are two other pictures that were added to her NamUs profile in 2020

I wonder if her car was found in operable condition—-out of gas? Were any of her belongings found with or near her car? Any indication someone else had driven her car (e. g., driver’s seat out of position)? I am not familiar with that location in CA, during that timeframe, but how common was it for a car to sit abandoned “for several weeks” without someone alerting law enforcement?

Lengthy article on Barbara, the pressures in the previous month of working the ER, personnel changes with those in LE investigating her case, findings by family and friends, theories.

I wonder if the car was hidden.
