Wanted to see if I could get some extra sets of eyes on this. These are photos of Anna.

I didn't think much about this match until I found the senior photo (last one shown of Anna) in a yearbook.

These photos were found in serial killer William Bradford's photo collection. I've submitted this to LE but didn't really get any feedback other than asking me which yearbooks I had found the photos of Anna in.

Does anyone else think they look like the same person?

Yes they look exactly alike!

The name always conjures up, unbidden, memories of the Grand Duchess Anastasia.

I'm usually skeptical of serial killer photo comparisons, but the two women look very similar. The only SK photo comparison where I immediately knew it was the same person was Christine Thornton. The photo is so eerie knowing she was killed very soon after the photo was taken.

Maybe if the photos were bigger and with better definition we could check for scars, moles, freckles or other signs.

Bumping up for Anna.

Cimatico · Oct 28, 2020

Cleaned the 3 Anna pics up a bit. Number 2 appears to show a mole or freckle near the right eyebrow but it isn`t visible in the others. Could be a photographic artifact or maybe she liked to cover it up

This is very informative and if interested you should really read the comments, People that knew Anna including her best friend comment. It's sad despite her parents efforts and being over protective of her she still fell in with the wrong crowd. From what is commented her boyfriend Victor was a known drug user and Anna herself got into drugs and then supposedly into prostitution to support their habit.
