Bumping up for 2024. I think she was transient, and that's why she wore layers of clothing. So perhaps she was reported missing in a different state.

There are a lot of missing women she could be, sadly.

NamUs #MP89962, Linda, 26, Massachusetts, August '97

NamUs #MP94923, Nicole, 34, California, March '97

NamUs #MP9574, Anna, 22, Ohio, Feb.'97

NamUs #MP20931, Sylvia, 32, Michigan, Feb '97

Mabel, 31, Maryland, 1996

The list goes on and on. I hope she has DNA in the system and has been checked against as many missing women as possible. Such a sad case.
