The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) (**POSTMORTEM WARNING! Not gory, but some viewers may find the images disturbing. They are for identification purposes only.**)

Ok, here’s a fresh Jane Doe for y’all from this month. She was found in Manhattan with four names, but who exactly IS she?

On May 3, 2023, a woman was found unresponsive in a small park in Manhattan, New York.

The decedent is described as a white female, around 35-45 years old, with brown hair and brown eyes.

She has lots of tattoos. On Namus she is described as having “Numerous tattoos on the neck, left arm, left forearm, left wrist, right arm, right forearm, right wrist, chest, stomach, back, lower back, left calf, and left ankle.”

The decedent was wearing a gray hoodie, a black zip up jacket with black decorative patterns, a red long sleeve shirt, a white tank top, navy blue sweatpants, blue sneakers, a single black sock, and a single gray sock.

She was rather petite, standing at 5’2” (157 cm) and weighing 119 pounds (54 kg).

Here is the list of tentative names/aliases for this Jane Doe, gathered from Namus.
- Amanda Marie Bowles
- Amanda Marie Mobley
- Samantha L Bowles
-Amanda L Mobley

I think that Samantha is an alias. I have a feeling the decedent was named Amanda. Bowles and Mobley may be married and maiden names or possibly bio last name and stepparent’s or adopted last name. Perhaps she was a twin, more specifically an identical twin and her sister was named Samantha… so she was mistaken as being “Samantha”. Just another theory of mine. Please take it with a grain of salt.

There are Ancestry records for Amanda Bowles-Mobley in New York, but it appears she's from upstate NY. She'd be about 37.

Edit: there are mugshot photos of AMB that look a good amount like the photos in NMAUS. I wonder if she's more unclaimed than unidentified.

I’ll report this one. :)
I am 99 percent certain that is her.

Bumping back up.

Is there any more information on “Amanda”’s identification?

I was actually able to identify her. I searched for 16 hours and found her mother. I did notify her, she was very grateful. Her name is Amanda Marie Bowles. Her sister’s name is Samantha.

There is a man on there that I also identified but I don’t even know if it’s my place to be notifying family like that so I didn’t

AHA! Just as I suspected. RIP Amanda

I know the Gilgo killer, RH isn't responsible for all the women left for dead in New York, otherwise I’d sure guess she was his type. Manhattan, petite, tattoos, law breaker, unclaimed, etc.
