Identified! TX - Huntsville, 'Walker County Jane Doe', WhtFem 14-16, 91UFTX, Nov'80 Sherry Ann Jarvis

[Springrain]

Bizarre. I made sure not to include anything I thought could be deemed as offensive, like any of the details of her murder. This is what I included:

-found november 1, 1980 in huntsville, tx.
-spoke with a waitress at hitch 'n' truck stop and claimed to be 19, from aransas pass/rockport tx - when they asked if her parents knew where she was, she said "who cares?"
-extensive searches of aransas pass/rockport yearbooks turned up empty - 5'6, 105 lbs., she had hazel eyes and 10'' long brown hair in "wing cut"
-distinctive scar running from left eyebrow to eyelid
-if you'd like more information, here are a couple links. https://www.facebook.com/WhoWasWalkerCountyJaneDoe/ https://youtu.be/AjPv-cQN0AE http://1980walkercountyjanedoe.weebly.com/ http://www.websleuths.com/forums/sho...ov-80-*GRAPHIC* http://www.doenetwork.org/cases/91uftx.html
if you have a runaway sister, friend, cousin, classmate, etc. from that time period who resembles her, and whose whereabouts are still unknown, please chime in @ websleuths and/or follow the directions under "about" on the weebly website

Why would this be taken down? There was nothing offensive or anything! Seems quite strange that it would be shut down.

Argh! Thanks so much for trying, you two! I wonder if it's because the forum is framed around current events? Maybe the post title needs to reference 35 years ago today? If you write a private msg to /r/Texas you will be emailing the mods and they may be able to explain?

Would the WS links be the reason they are removing them?

I don't think so, because on the Grateful Doe subReddit post I mentioned and linked to Websleuths.

I came back here to get the links from your siggy. I love your youtube postings.

I don't think it's her. That girl's hair is much longer than our Doe's plus it is black. (Recently it was reported that Doe's hair was shorter than recently stated, a kind of long bob). I think her eye shape is different too.

She kind of looks like Sophia Felecita Moreno...will make post on her thread.

I wonder if she was murdered, it would have been sometime 1990 or later. if she was, I wonder if she is a UID or was ID'd.

I wrote the Huntsville Item and asked them to send me the link to the article when it's done and this was his reply.

So there will be another artistic rendition of Ruthie Doe? That's great! NCMEC one does not look like her IMO. I do hope they use Carl's as well because it is strikingly accurate.

 

[AddysMom7610]

Apparently-or they are getting the proper approval to use Carl's? Idk

That is an absolutely fascinating story. Thanks for attaching the link.

 

[Springrain]

I bet it will be similar, stylistically, to the new NCMEC recon of 1980 Arroyo Grande Jane Doe. It was posted in articles about the 35th anniversary of AGJD's death. I hope Ruthie's recon shows her scar clearly, because someone will be more likely to call in a tip on a girl with the same eyebrow scar.
I hope they also portray the roundness in her face and delicate chin and nose, I don't think they did in the NCMEC original.
I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much about the article, but either way it's great she gets more media attention.
I am really hoping she gets brought home before the next anniversary.

Good News, Corpus Channel 10 NBC Action News ran Walker County Jane Does' story on the 5 O'Clock news!

[Springrain]

WOW! I am so happy her story is getting publicized! The 5 o'clock news is great!

To be honest, though, I'm a bit disappointed in the new recon. It is sure better than the last one, but I don't think it really portrays her scar, which is very, very important.

I didnt even see that they mentioned a scar. Terrible.

I know--that's a huge identifier. Maybe someone she knew would go and think "Oh, that looks a lot like ____, but I remember she had that scar on her eyebrow. It can't be her then."
