Identified! WA - Marla Thomas, 22, Anacortes, 11 Dec 1974

He was the only suspect. But, no evidence of anything led to no arrest. And he still walks this Earth, a haunted man, I'm sure. I am still active with the case.

If you guys haven't found the facebooF page already look up Missing Marla Jean and share share share! There has to be SOMEBODY in this word that knows something I don't.

Yes, it’s so suspicious. Marla vanished exactly a week after 17 year old Laurie partridge vanished.

So sad... I've always hoped someone would recognize Marla somehow but, aside from family nobody does.

The husband is a suspect?

 

[skyski]

Yes

 

[Mysteries1974]

Yes

I’ve always thought that Marla was the victim of a serial killer.

 

[skyski]

She was often dismissed due to Bundy's time frame but, I know this was not the case. How did you come to that conclusion?

 

[Mysteries1974]

I jus thought that she was a bundy victim based on the fact that she fits his victim description like her age range which is in her early 20s and she had brown hair.

 

[skyski]

I would had agreed with you.

 

[Mysteries1974]

Yeah

 

[Two for the road]

It is truly scary to think how many men are walking around right now having killed one of their wives in the past and people around them never knew.

Like GSK, you just never truly know a person.

It is very scary...

 

[Mysteries1974]

This case makes me feel so sad

 

[Mysteries1974]

I think I found a possible Match between Marla and a Jane doe found in Washington in 1981.

[skyski]

Thank you for this link. I will look into it!

 

[Mysteries1974]

Ok, I hope for the best! I hope you get closure.

 

[skyski]

Thank you!

 

[Mysteries1974]

Your welcome! You can contact law enforcement if you want a comparison done.

Eleven years after Marla disappeared, apparently another woman vanished from downtown Anacortes in 1985. I wonder if the cases are connected?
