Identified! OK - OSBI Needs Help to ID Woman In Photo *Resolved*

kgeaux: Host the image at ImageShack (link in my signature) then copy the link by the "direct link" lable, and using the "insert image" option (it's on the same line as the "insert link" option, it's yellow, and has mountains and a sun on it) insert the link (make sure not to get an extra http in there) into the pop up box. That will post an image here.

Like a few other people have said she could have had them tweezed or threaded. I didn't know a lot about the Tara Calico case but after reading today it seems she had been seen in the company of several adult men. She could have very well tweezed/threaded between the time the first photo was taken and the last one.

She looks a lot like the unidentified girl in this black and white photo.

The nose is way too short on that image. It isn't her.

Wow I thought I was the only one who didn't see any resemblence. I didn't see it before and I still don't see it. IMO this photo looks nothing like Tara Calico. I think law enforcement has probably already checked this against KNOWN missing persons and didn't find a match so that's why they are turning to the public to help ID this poor girl. We tend to forget the police have vast resources to check on things like this. IMO they've already done thier thing and came up empty so they are as stumped as we are. It's not Tara, IMO.

I guess I need to get my glasses changed.

Sorry.

Sorry.

We all have our own opinion and that's just mine. Please feel free to disagree with me. I think we are all here for the same reason, to try and help someone. Peace.

If you will look back at post #3 which compares photos...you will certainly see the nose is NOT too short. It is the same length with the same characteristics as Tara's. I have to run for now, but when I come back I will try to show you.

Er, you do realize that the photo linked is of an unidentified woman *NOT* Tara Calico, right? The nose in the image linked in the post I quoted is WRONG. I don't think it looks much like Tara Calico either. Nor do I think the subject of the photo this topic is about resembles her very well.

ETA: Though the black and white image does look like Tara Calico, I don't think either the black and white image, or the other images of Tara Calico look like the subject of the photo this topic was started about. The tip of the nose is very different, the nose is longer. That nose is shorter. The nose in the black and white image especially is *TOO* short!

 

[lizzybeth]

Maybe you guys are right. I don't see a cleft in Tara's chin in that photo either.

I think once you start comparing all these pictures you start thinking you see similarities in everyone.

THANK YOU, KatK! Let's see if an old kgeaux can learn a new trick!

This is a silk velvet Middle Eastern robe. I just wanted to see if ya'll see any similarities in the swirls in the designs, the material, the way the pattern repeats on the arm, etc.

I don't know why I'm feeling she could be middle eastern, but it's something I'm "exploring" today.

EDIT: Crud. I guess you can't teach an old kgeaux a new trick. I'll have to try again!

KatK are you talking about the photo that I linked? I know that one came off the childseek website and as far as I know was a pic of Tara Calico.

 

[KatK]

No, not the message board link, the "direct link" link. You can rehost it if you need to. (S'ok, it varies with sites what link will work.)

Here is a larger picture of Tara Calico. I see some similiarities, but I don't know.

Go back to my post number 262, yes I was responding to your post. But you said "She looks a lot like the unidentified girl in this black and white photo." which I took to be in reference to the image this topic is trying to indentify, not Tara Calico. Ok, so the image you posted they don't know who she is, and you think she looks like Tara Calico? I agree. I don't agree that the subject in the velour robe with the red clumps in her hair looks like the black and white image, nor do I think she resembles Tara Calico. The tip of the nose, the nostrils are wrong. There are other things too, but I don't wanna bring up the un-retouched image again to be able to "verbalize" them.

trying to get the actual photo in here:

This is a silk velvet Middle Eastern robe. (Actually, I think they called it a "throbe" or something like that.)

I am interested in hearing your comments on the similarities or lack thereof in the style of the robe with the one worn by the girl in the photo.

 

[lizzybeth]

My mistake. That IS a picture of Tara (the black and white one). I meant to say this black and white picture looks a lot like the pic of the unidentified girl.
Or it does to me.

I guess that's what I get for trying to post while I should be working.

Thanks, sweetie! I think I finally got it.....you just have to type s l o w and repeat yourself sometimes before it clicks with me!

Now, back on topic:

I don't think our unidentified girl looks much like Tara. I think Tara's jawline looks stronger, and Tara's nose doesn't match our girls either, IMO. Out of all the photos of "possibles" that we've linked here, Tara is probably the closest, but I don't think she is a match.

 

[KatK]

trying to get the actual photo in here:

Bingo!

 

[lizzybeth]

Wow kgeaux, that does look a lot like the robe in the picture. Where did you find it?

Tara's chin seems longer, has no cleft, and Tara's nose seems to have a slight upturn which our unidentified girl does not have. Maybe it's just me, but I think it's close but not a match.

The chin is wrong too. The person in the terrible photograph has a weaker chin. Tara Calico's is pointier. The lips of the person in the image are also fuller, (the top lip especially is fuller than Tara's) and Tara has got more forehead. (Look at how much space from brow up to the hairline there is on Tara, compared to the person in that photo. Tara had a higher forehead.) They aren't the same person. ETA: I just did a side by side comparison of the image we are discussing, and the image linked in the post I quoted to point these things out.
