This UID is on the opposite coast, but several of the details match. Never know what to do when that happens? The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)
Interesting suggestion (too bad no pic) from link.rbbm.

Re:-Fingernails (3) with reddish purple material

I also wondered if this could be Robin's red blouse?

I've driven from California to NY before in a few days, but obviously much more recently than her disappearance, so I don't know what it was like back then? Not sure why a killer would go to that amount of trouble, but if they had some connect to Long Island, or NYC, maybe?? Hmmm...

I wish we knew the color of the clog found with the Jane Doe. Robin's clogs were red.

I wonder if it was recorded anywhere? Do we know if Robin's clogs were full similar to Dansko (which I do not believe was around in the US then? edited 1990) or if they were a sandal variety?

Edited: Ok. So 70s clogs probably look something like these. I was curious if any UIDs described with "chunky red sandals" might also be ones we should consider for Robin. 08299f5ba6acf8097b5bb59a1ce862b2.jpg

So watched the news report above , good to see it being brought back into the public eye.

assume the hair sample is to see if any unidentified remains are Robins ?

What do you think the new tip could be ?

The report mentions a boy she was seeing wrote a “angry “ letter the day she went missing , as she went out that night with someone else ?

there is old footage shown twice of police talking to the owner of a ratty looking corvette at the side of the road ?

is Bruce Davis a likely suspect ? He supposedly had a similar corvette , but surely that’s the first thing they would check?


Thanks for the link to the video

Look what I found

I think this Jane doe could be Robin, could someone with a good heart send her to see if she can match? I don't live in the United States and I don't know how to ship either

Do we know if Robin had extensive dental work?

It makes me sad to know that this could be a good possibility and that sadly I don't know how it is shipped since I do not live in the US :( so I would really appreciate anyone if you could send this

The estimated date of the death of these remains is less than a year so this theory would suggest she was held captive for seven years out in the desert.
 
  • #253
I wouldn't rule it out solely based on the est. date of death. It is worth noting, of course, but they've been wrong before. If enough other things match up--which is why I asked if anyone knew about Robin's dentals--then it could be her since the remains were skeletal.

One detail I have a question about is the label on the jeans. Would that have been common in 1970 when Robin disappeared? It seems more of a late 70s, veering towards the "designer jeans" trend to me.

Bumping for Robin, today is her birthday.

Apparently it was determined that Little Miss Lake Panasoffkee had had at least two kids and had suffered of malnutrition during her childhood. Together with the isotopes, that doesn't appear to match.

LMLP has all the hallmarks of a domestic dispute kind of killing, IMO. And those usually are borne out of rage...I don't think driving across the country to dump a body would be plausible in that case. Plus, from her heritage, it sounds like she was either from a family of first generation Greeks that didn't want to report her missing maybe because she was an illegal alien. Or she was someone visiting from Greece and relatives just thought she went back home.

The description of the car from Robin Grahams abduction sounds too similar to other murders in the area. Alcala was known to drive a blue car like that, I've always wondered if he took her.

what other murders mention a corvette?

the car is/was the key but too late now i guess ?
