Oh wow that is a good find. I wonder where downtown was the security job?
I couldn't find any more info. I did find a picture of her searching but I don't think it was a source I can post. It seemed viable based on the reconstruction, maybe...

I don't spend much time in this area of the forums (or didn't until recently). I took a quick look around but didn't find a reference. How do I submit her? (Apologies if I just missed this somewhere.)

Edit: Ok, I found this thread with tips: NEW - Tips before submitting

Will dig a bit to see who to contact and get the info together!

it would be nice if they took photos of the other items that she had with her.. like her bag. I have looked for more info on this jane doe but have not really found much. it reminds me so much of the midtown jane doe.. I wonder if the same super that worked this building worked the midtown building? I wonder how many more women are found under concrete in Manhattan.

All the stats match up, resembles the recon, not sure about the timeline.


I was thinking the same thing.. the only thing that bothers me is the timeline. That is why I wish they had photos of the bag and the make up.. sometimes with the make up you might be able to tell according to the look or case as to when it might be from.. companies are always changing them or adding and discontinuing colors.

ok.. I just read this over and it says.. the workers found a plastic bag with skeleton AND several Large Bones... were these bones separate from the skeleton.. like extra bones? and if so, did they ever identify what or who the Large bones came from?.. I dont know if I am reading this all wrong.. but seems weird.
