Perhaps Dana Elaine Becker – The Charley Project
Dana Becker matches within an inch on the height estimate and has the right hair colour. She had green versus brown eyes but if the remains were decomp then perhaps the LE records are a guess on eye colour?

Dana was under the weight for this UID but they would only have a rough estimate only given the decomp. Dana had a C-section scar and a scar on one knee (possible the person reporting her missing may not have noticed one on the other knee?). With a history of involvement in drug circles, could she have made her way to CA after her disappearance in July 2000 and become involved in sex work (I may be presumptuous but that's why I assume this UID was in a hotel?)

Theres a lot of missing pieces here. Who was renting the room she was found in? How long was that room rented for? Was there signs of a struggle?

I can reach out to the coroner and see if they can disclose any of that information if yall want me to.
I would submit that. It's worth a shot.
become involved in sex work (I may be presumptuous but that's why I assume this UID was in a hotel?)
I think that's one possibility. It's also possible she died by non homicidal means, such as a heart attack, suicide, or an overdose but used a fake name when signing in.
 
@Caring1 Hey could you post the current list of NamUs exclusions for this Jane Doe? I would greatly appreciate it.
