I didn't find another thread for this UID. If there is one, please let me know and I'll merge them. Thanks.

A few minor updates/amendments in Namus (ie: height now listed as 5'1" (previously 4'11 - 5'2). The record was recently updated so perhaps LE have been reviewing and (hopefully) adding ruleouts. UID has full DNA according to previous Namus data listed in post #1.

Her teeth are pretty distinct, I wish there was a photo of the skull available.

I submitted Chandler and Novice McCart. McCart seems like a good candidate too because she was both white and Hispanic. Height and age fit. She also disappeared in Texas.
