Times Picayune Crime Report - 01/29/83
St Rose, LA - Babette Nadine Phillips 23 was arrested for distribution narcotics there were also (2) men arrested as well.
It's possible one of the two men may be whom she visited in the Hahnville jail.

Have diligently searched Time Picayune on any information in regards to Babette's disappearance, thus far have yet to find any articles. Excluding an arrest in Jan 83 and also an announcement of both her sister and her winning a pottery contest.

If Babette disappeared between Chalmette to Bay St Louis, MS in which is one of the hardest hit areas of Katrina the likely hood of her being found is very slim.

Cold Case September 2007

http://www.houstonpress.com/news/cold-case-6540443

The only mention of Princess Blue's surgically removed upper left tooth is buried in the 1990 medical examiner's report; it was never released to the public as an investigative aid. If it had been, someone — sleuth or cop — might have taken a closer look at Babette Alberti.

Alberti was last seen in October 1983, in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, which comprises a large part of suburban New Orleans. Based on the information on the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office Web site, Alberti seems an unlikely candidate for Princess Blue. The height is on, but the age, 31, is off. Alberti's photograph vaguely resembles the Princess Blue sketches, but certainly not more than Cheatham.

It's on the Web sites of the Doe Network and the Charley Project — privately established sites run by volunteers — that Alberti comes more into focus. A second photograph on those sites shows Alberti smiling, revealing what appears to be a gap in her upper teeth where a tooth might have been. Those sites also reveal that Alberti fractured her ribs as a child. Princess Blue's upper two ribs were fractured; the autopsy never established if that occurred post- or antemortem. The sites also state, "She may have been involved in drugs and prostitution."

Of course, the chances of Alberti being a match for Princess Blue would rise and fall dramatically on whether she was actually missing a tooth, and, if so, which one. But a call to the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office proved a dead end.

"I cannot give any information out," said Captain Hilda Montecino of the JPSO. She said she would contact the Manvel Police Department, and any information would have to come from them. All she could disclose was that Alberti was last seen in St. Bernard Parish in September 1983, placing her last known whereabouts in a different parish and a different month than what's listed on the JPSO Web site.

Montecino offered to put the Houston Press in touch with the JPSO's public information officer, although he wouldn't be able to say anything, either. When the Press asked for the PIO's name and number, Montecino said he would be the one calling. That's because, when it comes to the name and number of the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office's public information officer, "We just don't give that out to the public."

So that's Princess Blue Doe that she's ruled out against right?

What about this UID? She was found a while away in Mississippi but she matches in other respects:
Unidentified Person Case
height 4' 10''
estimated age 15-29
Found in 1024 but skeletal remains so could have been there a long time

Babette Alberti Phillips looks very similar to this Jane Doe found in New Orleans 6 years later and seems to have a similar strong jawline, same height etc.

And Babette isn't on the UID's Rule Out list. I agree with sunnynz - you should submit!
