Identified! FL - Tampa, WhtFem UP61522, 11-15, most likely 12-14 years old, Jan'91 - Name withheld

I wonder if maybe Lisa Sexton could be a possible match for Tampa girl? She went missing from Elyria, Ohio on May 1st 1981. She left with an older male companion who was a drug dealer. He later returned without her. Per the Charley Project:

“She was last known to be in the Tampa, Florida area. Lisa may have traveled to Mexico shortly afterwards.”

I wonder if maybe Lisa never left Tampa and was killed there by the man she left with or someone else. Based on what I’ve read, there’s no proof she left Tampa. Just throwing this possiblity out there as I thought of this case today and looked through NamUs for some matches and found Lisa.

 

[Mrs. Badcrumble]

*Bump* for Tampa Girl.

Her NamUs was recently updated, but no visible changes. I does fill me with hope, though. It means her case is being worked on

Could someone post the NamUs Hillsborough County Jane Doe exclusion list? I don't live in the US so I can't see the exclusion list.

Looking at the exclusion list mentioned by @Caring1 , I think Lisa Sexton could be a great potential match for the Hillsborough County Jane Doe.

I submitted a tip to LE since that gave me good luck with Martha Jean Lambert. I was told they received the tip so hopefully they can rule Lisa in or out soon.

[Bit of hope]

Seems like NamUs operates with parameters that needs to be filled out, so when exact location can't be established, many just use a recent or the current location. AFAIK, precise location of Tampa Girl's discovery site is lost, along with her original case file.

I wonder how they are ruling out girls.

 

[PayrollNerd]

I wonder how they are ruling out girls.

I bet they've done DNA but haven't made that public information. It sounds like all they had to work with is a skull and/or dentals.

Details of Recovery​

Inventory of Remains
Torso not recovered
One or more limbs not recovered
One or both hands not recovered

Condition of Remains Not recognizable - Partial skeletal parts only

Hi, did you get any update on this?

This is about another victim of J.N. Crum Sr., attacked in Spring Hill, Hernando county in 1992.

Mother of cold case victim had prayed that attacker was dead

Article from 2015.
Authorities announced Thursday that they had arrested Jeffrey Norman Crum, 53, of Holiday and charged him with sexual battery and attempted murder of Fagan's daughter, Carolyn Murray. Murray was 17 on Jan. 16, 1992, when investigators allege Crum intercepted her as she got off the school bus and led her behind a vacant house. There, authorities allege Crum hit her over the head with a blunt object so hard it crushed part of her skull and caused her to lose part of her brain.

The cold case had gone unsolved for more than two decades until Florida Department of Law Enforcement specialists, using a sophisticated technique called familial DNA searching, were able to link DNA from semen left at the scene with that of Crum's son, Jeffrey Crum II, 34, who is in prison. That finally led them to the elder Crum, who was taken into custody Wednesday afternoon.

When doctors got their first look at Murray, they believed she wouldn't survive, Fagan said. The teen was in a coma and underwent two surgeries on what remained of her brain. When she awoke, her left side was paralyzed and she could not form full sentences.

To this day Murray, now 40, cannot speak in full sentences. She communicates through broken syntax and individual words, and by using her right hand, according to her mother.

Wow that's terrible. He must have hit her so hard. How evil

Had to be on the USF Tampa campus yesterday. As I was driving in, I thought of Tampa girl. Hoping 2023 is her year to regain her name and go home.

Send us a sign little lady. Your family needs you home.

 

[PayrollNerd]

Sitting up here in Tampa thinking of you today little Tampa Girl. Hope you can get your name back soon.

 

[Mrs. Badcrumble]

Tampa Girl's NamUs page was recently updated, and I believe she's got a new case owner:

CASE OWNER
Hillsborough Medical Examiners Office
(813) 914-4500

Agency Case Number
MEO21-12162/USF19-018
No Investigator Entered


The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office is still listed as an investigating agency; same detective, too.




No new visible exclusions, though.

 

[Aurora90]

I wonder why this sweetie is not listed on this site....how sad.
Unidentified Remains

This page contains descriptions of all unidentified remains found in Hillsborough County in the last four decades. Call 813-914-4567 to speak to an investigator about matching one of these unidentified bodies to a missing person.

They missed one at least. Can somebody from the states call this number and do some inquiries?

She is on this site now, but it says she was missing sometime prior to 1995....

This girl really could be anyone.
