TX TX - Maria Trinidad Velasquez, 29, Houston, 8 June 1986

I was interested to find out that Maria's divorce was finalized in October 1986. That is only months from when she was reported missing. I bet the ex had something to do with her disappearance.

I'll try to take care of it this week. I think she is a very good possibility also.

I just want to add here that I believe Maria's maiden name was Ramirez.

Wonderful! Thank you. Fingers crossed once more xxxxx.

Maria has been compared by DNA against Princess Blue and she is NOT a match.

I spoke with Cassandra at the Texas Missing Persons Clearinghouse. She was very nice and helpful.

They will be updating Maria's info to include that Maria does have DNA on file.

I am going through through threads for those who have been ruled out as being Princess Blue and giving them their own threads if they don't have them already.

There is very little information about Maria's disappearance, but both The Doe network and Charley project say she was reported missing after she did not return from the store...Upon reading the circumstances of Maria's disappearance, "she went to the store" It looks like you're running a quick errand like shopping or buying new shoes. Was the store Maria went to a Laundromat? or a small convenience store? Maybe a hurt ex-boyfriend waited for her, knowing her routine?
either way
rest in peace
