This case was brought to my attention, and I had not seen it before. Since this girl is likely a teenager, I am starting a thread to give her some much needed attention

I came up with two girls who fit the demographics and time frame, but nothing else on them that really stand out as strong possibles. The geography on these two is pretty far off.

Maricella Cortez: http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/c/cortez_maricella.html
Nicole Russo: https://www.findthemissing.org/en/cases/14803/15

Patricia Loya is also pretty consistent (if you want to stretch the time frame out a little bit). The geography is a bit far, but the trip from El Paso to Lafayette County MO is a straight shot via Hwy 54

Valerie Sloan is slightly taller than the Jane Doe's 5'1" height estimate (based on skeletal remains). You can see from her mugshot (allowing for shoes and her body posture) that she is about 5'3" - 5'4". The timeline is slightly long, and the geography is also a stretch. But the circumstances are not too consistent if you believe the confession of her possible killer, Joseph Miller.

What about Angela Hammond

The timing is off but the height fits.

Missing Since: April 4, 1991 from Clinton, Missouri
Classification: Endangered Missing
Date of Birth: February 9, 1971
Age: 20 years old
Height and Weight: 4'11 - 5'0, 120 - 140 pounds
Distinguishing Characteristics: Caucasian female. Brown hair, brown eyes. Hammond's teeth were in excellent condition in 1991. Her nickname is Angie. She has a scar on her upper lip.
Clothing/Jewelry Description: A white button-down shirt with black spots, black slacks and white sneakers.
Medical Conditions: Hammond was four months pregnant at the time of her disappearance.

 

[CarlK90245]

She is probably a little too old, as age estimates on teens (with a couple of notable exceptions) are usually pretty accurate.

But the "teeth in excellent condition" part is a positive. The Jane Doe had only one filling.

Kristina Bishop went missing on 10/19/1994 from 50 miles away in Columbia, Mo. She is a little young at 13, but I hope she was still considered. She does have a gap in her front teeth that isn't mentioned in the report for this uid.

It took me a bit- but I saw on her dentals that her 2 top front teeth were missing post-mortem.. So Kristina having a gap wouldnt have been noticeable on this skull. She is definitely worth a look!

 

[honesty]

I had looked at Kristina as well.. I agree its worth a look.

There really isn't much information to go on from the namus entries. I wish there were more information. I wondered how they determined the deceased was 7 months PM. From what I gather there were only partial remains found.

 

[kimmo]

Just curious if Kristina Bishop has been ruled out?

 

[kimmo]

I'm new to all this. But the cases on the kids missing in my state concern me! Here's another possibility. Gina Brooks.

[kimmo]

I just noticed Gina has been ruled out. Rachel Pratt has also been ruled out.

Bumping..

If it's Jennifer it could've been to abduct her infant to raise her or sell her.

Your thoughts?

Bump!

 

[ChatteringBirds]

May this girl be identified and the perpetrator also arrested soon. Just a teenager, murdered, and no one knows who she is, nevermind who did it. These cases are terrible.

 

[ChatteringBirds]

Bumping up for Jane Doe.

There aren't many details regarding the circumstances surrounding Anna Purdy's disappearance. Timeline, race, age, and height all match the info provided in JD's profile. I suppose it's possible Anna hitched a ride with someone who was headed east on I-70 which, after a 16.5 - 17 hr drive, would take them to Lafayette County, MO. I wonder if her dental records are available in NamUs?

If this is the UID here, there is a missing infant. Were this infant's remains found at McKnight Tire?

MO - MO - Columbia, McKnight Tire, UnkSex/Race Infant, UP59447, in backpack hidden in old tire, Aug'19

I get a lot of exercise jumping to conclusions, and will suggest dots to connect when we don't have enough dots.
