Eyebrows shaved???

Eyebrows shaved???

Punk rock was big back then. The Dead Kennedys, the Sex Pistols, just to name two.

Word of caution: Some might find the link below as TMI regarding punk in the late 1970's. In some punk circles, if you passed out due to drink/drugs or any combination thereof, you would get your eyebrows shaved while passed out.

It looks like 717 Sutter Street is a 6-story building but it says she fell 7 stories -- so maybe she was all the way up on the roof?
It's now a San Francisco Art Institute dorm called Sutter Hall. From at least 1916 - 1991, it was a hotel called Hotel De Luxe.

Doesn't look like a building with 7 floors on google maps...

I wonder if this could be Anita Qvist. The circumstances of her disappearance seem unclear.

 

[Darianne]

I was just Googling EDJD and found a FB post comparing EJJD and Anita Quist, and a relative of Anita Quist mentioned she was found in 2019 by the FBI.

I know this is a really old post I’m responding to, but here is a current Google image of 717 Sutter St. and it does appear to be 6 stories. There was speculation she could have fallen/jumped from the roof to get the height reported as 7 levels.

There was speculation she could have fallen/jumped from the roof to get the height reported as 7 levels.

I read that somewhere as well, perhaps even in an old article, which I am still hunting for ... I do suppose she could have also been pushed

The subject had apparently jumped or fallen seven stories and landed in front of 717 Sutter Street.

The way that’s worded, to me, leaves open the possibility that she didn’t actually jump/was pushed/fell from the building at 717 Sutter, she just “landed in front of it”.

On mobile atm so can’t dig too much, but maybe there’s a neighboring building 7 stories or higher? (Always possible LE just got it wrong, too.)

 

[buyerninety]

Most likely LE got it completely right. IMO she got up
onto 717 Sutter St roof, went down the front fire escape,
couldn't get into one of the (probably locked) windows
facing the fire escape and tried to open/climb through
the front facing windows off the fire escape and fell from
one of those levels to her eventual death. None of the
residents knew who she was or wouldn't admit to knowing
her. Was she a casual resident? or a non-resident who
knew of the people (druggies?)in one of the apartments
and hoped to find drugs in there? or someone who knew no-one at the apartments and simply failed at an attempt
at cat burglary?

Is it possible to share that link? Anita Qvist is still listed as a MP
