McKenna Jane Doe has been unidentified for 46 years today.
I made the same comparison on Cherry's WS thread. According to Doe Network Cherry does not have dentals on file so unfortunately there's no way to compare the two at this time.
They mention that DNA associated the cranium to the mandible. I wonder where the DNA sample ended up. Her remains were disposed of in 1979. Would they have even collected DNA back then?
Has Laurie Lynn Patridge been ruled out?
Zero ruleouts in NamUs.Could someone post the list of NamUs exclusions for this Jane Doe?
Depending on how often the info gets updated, that officer may no longer be working in that department or at all. Older cases don't always get contact info updated.Zero ruleouts in NamUs.

According to Doe Network they only have dental records on file for the deceased, so all potential matches will need to be compared manually.

I would recommend contacting Amber Larkins to submit potential matches. Her email is [email protected]

According to Doe Network Laurie has dental records on file. I will email amber and ask for this match to be looked into.
Sorry for all the edits. I'm having technical difficulties this AM
Yeah but I still think it would be good to try.Depending on how often the info gets updated, that officer may no longer be working in that department or at all. Older cases don't always get contact info updated.
Unfortunately that very well may be the case.Depending on how often the info gets updated, that officer may no longer be working in that department or at all. Older cases don't always get contact info updated.
I'm going to inquire about this as wellThey mention that DNA associated the cranium to the mandible. I wonder where the DNA sample ended up. Her remains were disposed of in 1979. Would they have even collected DNA back then?
That's awesome! I've made contact with Amber and she is still working that case. I have not submitted the tip yet. Do you still want me to submit it?I just got off the phone with the ME. The front desk transferred me to an investigator who took the time to look into it while on the phone with me. She said it didn't look like Laurie had been looked into before (at least not in their department) so they are going to look into it asap. She was so lovely and thanked me for the tip. I'm glad this is getting looked into. It would be great for both the Jane Doe and Laurie's cases to get looked at again. It certainly can't hurt!
Yes please do! Can't hurt to have both departments looking into it. Hopefully they have dentals!That's awesome! I've made contact with Amber and she is still working that case. I have not submitted the tip yet. Do you still want me to submit it?
Just to clarify, you submitted this tip to police, not the ME?Yes please do! Can't hurt to have both departments looking into it. Hopefully they have dentals!
I sent the tip to the medical examiner's office. I guess they also have their own team of ME investigators. They have Jane Doe's into and she took time collecting the file because it was an older one (maybe on another system?) She is going to look into and compare dentals between the two. (She will likely call Amber requesting Laurie's dentals)Just to clarify, you submitted this tip to police, not the ME?
Laurie Partridge's thread:Has Laurie Lynn Patridge been ruled out? Seen in Spokane. Likely was abducted. Was last seen wearing a blue jacket with a hood, and also last seen wearing burgundy pants. Not sure if the shoes match though, google has been unkind to me today.
Would love to rule her out.
