Does she have any dental information available?

 

[Diane Redfern]

Is there anyone, relatives or friends, who could provide some information about her? Where did she live? What was her lifestyle? Did she work or study at the time? Was she depressed? Did she usually hitchhike? Had she mentioned any intention of travelling or leaving her home? Did she have any enemies? Was she married?

There is frustratingly little information about this case. Also what's the deal that she went missing exactly on NYE 1977? there must be more to that story....or is it an arbitrary date, because the exact date is not known when she was last seen?!

Could this be Roxanne ? I feel like it matches up pretty well and could be worth looking into.

I think this is considered to be one of Bundy's victims. Many believe she is Donna Manson, but it's impossible to confirm, as the remains were destroyed in 1985, before DNA could be obtained.
According to Unidentified Wiki:
The clothing found with the remains reportedly was similar to that worn by Donna Manson, who disappeared from Olympia, Washington four years earlier. A medical examiner could not exclude Manson through dental records.
Despite this connection, the decedent is listed as being considerably taller than Manson. Accounts by Ted Bundy, who confessed to her murder, claimed he destroyed her skull through cremation. He said he disposed of the rest of her remains in the Cascade Mountains.
