Just curious, does anyone know why there is no information on this case? They have her name, but where is the information on her parents, like when she was last seen and was she living with her family or was she in state custody? That sort of thing? I can't find anything on her living situation at all. There is no mention of her family life before her disappearance at all, and there has to be something out there, they know her name and age, which means they have to at least know her mum is.
 
I found this on another site, which, if true, at least adds SOMETHING to this case. The poster is replying to someone claiming to be Brandi Lee Krajewski:

Bumping for Brandi.
Wish we had more information on her disappearance.
In light of Kamiyah Mobley & the Yates being found, I hope this is how it turns out for Brandi, too.
 
Bit strange that a kidnapper would take the time to take her blankets and toys too, if this was a middle of the night, stranger through the window type kidnapping.
 
All right, just looked on Charley Project and there is some more info. The mother was at work and her boyfriend was looking after the child. When the mother got home, child and boyfriend, blankets and toys were all gone. Police issued an arrest warrant for the boyfriend, Daniel Waters, but when he was found there was no trace of the child.

Wow, that's new information, because before all it read was that investigators suspected she was murdered but I didn't find a reason why. Adding that the boyfriend took off with her and then was found without her makes sense now as to why.
Thanks for the update.
 
https://www.identifyus.org/en/cases/5722 This UID has been ruled out by DNA as being Brandi.

I am in contact with Brandi's older sister, who is still looking for Brandi and trying to get the information on the case out. She seems happy to answer questions, and has more pictures of Brandi that she said she will upload to submit to the Charley Project.
 
I found: https://www.identifyus.org/en/cases/10561 Which does not have Brandi as a rule out. There's not a lot to go on with either case. I would think that if the UID's DNA is in the system it would be an automatic rule out. Don't know if I should bother sending it in, in light of that.
I already submitted Brandi as a potential match on that set of remains because investigators are insisting DNA be done manually for some reason. So, if you come across any other MP's that fit this UP, definitely submit it.
Sorry I didn't update that here as well, I try to be good about cross posting. Here is a thread (sort of) for that set of remains:

That's great you are in contact with Brandi's older sister. Would love to have more pictures and information out there, if possible.
 
The boyfriend being left with the child then he was later located and did not have the child seems odd. Or we just do not know the full story ...

Have you heard anything back regarding this match, Alley?
 
No, I haven't heard anything, but I hardly ever have any follow up unless to tell me that an MP was already ruled out.

I agree with you, KO. Brandi is a good potential match for the decedent UP# 10561. She’s still not listed in the exclusions.
 
Brandi’s disappearance bothers me a great deal. Her mother’s ‘boyfriend’ of just months disappears and allegedly abducts Brandi from CA, possibly transporting her over state lines to NV, and she is never seen again. The alleged perpetrator needs to be investigated by the FBI — and not only at the time of Brandi’s disappearance. I suspect there were/are other victims. It smacks of grooming, child trafficking and, possibly, child exploitation.
