857DFCA - Rosalind Giles

Rosalind Giles matches exactly on height, weight, age (5'1" 115lb and age 30-45). She went missing from CA since January 1991, 4.5 years before this UID was found. Rosalind was known to be involved in prostitution and drugs. The UID has an enlarged heart - this can be a side effect of using some drugs. Rosalind had a high risk lifestyle, did she have a history of moving around? Could she have relocated and then become transient/homeless?
I turned in this possible match to Doe Network. Rosalind is not in Namus.
