Hello. I know these do not match the post mortem interval, but considering Jane Doe was completely skeletal, it very well could be off significantly and it seems like NAMUS is open to this possibility as a few of the rule outs are from the 80s. Here are three more matches, all from Maryland.

Brooklyn Jane Doe has been unidentified for 18 years today.

Bump! Hoping 2024 will be the year she's identified.

 

[Bit of hope]

Could she be Wendy Smith? Wendy Rene Smith - York Regional Police

Age wouldn't fit, the time gap is concerning and there is something weird going on with the info about her out there.

Wendy had brown hair, green eyes and a nosering; she was 5'3" and weighed about 120 pounds. She was last seen at the night club wearing a black skirt, black sweater and black shoes.

Discussing her in this thread CANADA - Canada - Wendy Rene Smith, 29, York, On, 13 April 1995

It turns out she had red hair and injuries to her face.

COLD CASE: Fantasia Hotel haunts Wendy Smith's family years after closure

Wendy Smith as a child.
"Growing up, Wendy was described by her older brother, Dr. Robert Smith, a forensic clinical psychologist in Alberta, as a darling child with a bit of a rebellious streak.

“She was a very sweet, freckle faced little girl with red hair, just a gorgeous little thing,” he said."

“Her jaw had to be reconstructed the jaw and eye socket had to be fused together, her jaw wired,” she said. “You could not recognize her from that side. It was pretty hard to look at. I had no idea she was an exotic dancer before that.”

It was during this visit that Betty first discovered Wendy was working as an escort. It's unclear if Wendy had a pimp at this stage, but it's alleged that she'd eventually work with one."

Someone in that thread tried in 2018 to get this info out to authorities but weren't very perceptive (as is obvious now, because it's still not in her file)

Another bump! Really don't want for this case to be forgotten.

I think Wendy might be too old, but I like the find. Thanks for helping to keep the case alive! Have you reported your find to the authorities?

Thanks. No I didn't. I have to many doubts.

Totally fair! And same, I'm sorry but I just don't see it.

I don’t see Christina Crespo as a rule out. A compelling match to me:

This looks like a good call. Have you notified the Anne Arundel authorities?

How did you find out about her?

No, I haven’t contacted anyone. I just post here.
Please feel free to submit!

OK--I phoned the Cristina Crespo name into the Anne Arundel Police Homicide division. I didn't get to speak to a person and had to leave a voice mail. We'll see what comes of it.

I think Christina would be a great match.
I'm very local to this, grew up in the area. Given the location, which is riddled with drugs, it's highly likely this was an OD. Happens every day, probably multiple times a day in this neighborhood.
Philadelphia is an easy trip to Baltimore, so I could def see it being her.

Any traction on this?
