Wouldn't accept, to what does it refer? TIA
To clarify my point: Her son might not accept or try hypnosis. I explained that in my last message.

There is a case of young woman who was murdered in 1987 in similar circumstances have been solved through genetic geneology. It's a shame that jaye's on stall

“They take DNA, they feed it into a computer and if you have a suspect’s DNA, it will a facial approximation of what that suspect looks like,” Doncourt said.

She also said they are looking into doing more DNA tests with a new device called an M-vac system.

In July, the Brunswick County Sheriff’s Office purchased an m-vac system. They immediately used the device on evidence from Mintz’s case.


“It’s a giant vacuum cleaner,” Doncourt said. “They wet down the piece and it just sucks everything up, so it pulls out far more DNA than the old method of just swabbing.”

The Sheriff’s Office is now just waiting on the result to come back from the state crime lab.

Whether it is new technology, or old evidence, Doncourt said they will find the answer.

“Phil taught me a lot and one of the things he taught me is just don’t give up. You’re going to get pushed away, you’re going to be told no. You’re going to hit a brick wall. That’s okay. There’s another string to pull. There is always something. As long as we’re sitting here, as long as we can read these case files, as long as technology keeps advancing, we are just going to keep following that road map,” Doncourt said.''

No, I meant the solved case from michigan, roxanne wood stabbed to death in her own home in 1987,her killer found through genetic geneology.
I did not know the owensby case, but I searched through apparently she was a military wife. There is no progress in her death either.
Did you hear about a case, Eileen zirlenga, mahony county? This is another unsolved case, she was taken from her home (her baby left behind) and found death on the road in 1988. I think this is a cold case now

That was in 2018, where are we now, in 2024.so obviously the case is on stall.

Hi, her sister informed the house, which was broken into days after the murder, was sold/dismantled and rebuilt in a new neighborhood not far from Leland (Newport, I think).
Where did you get this info if you don’t mind me asking?

Just started a thread for Eileen, she reminds me somewhat of Jaye..

He got it from Justice for Jaye Facebook page. One of the comments. Does anyone have a picture of it now ?

I will search for it on Nearmaps and google. Who knows? It is difficult but worth trying.

Good to be back.
Just a possibility that came to my mind.

Could it be the case that Jaye was murdered by a relative or a friend?

It is just speculation, a guess, I am not not affirming anything.

The fact that the murderer was so nimble and smart to get in the house and do what he did and disappear without a trace and because he knew so much about her, really makes me wonder.

Agree. It was somebody who could get in there to do that and out without raising a concern, even from a crew working nearby, in the middle of the day.

It seems the information from Mark Evans was wrong, Jay Potter Mintz's house was moved to Southport/NC. (A friend in the family corrected the info).
