Hi Roselvr,
I called Dr. Derrick on 12/23 about the possible match between their Jane Doe #4601 (red-headed girl in Western shirt) and Michelle Garvey from New London, CT. She didn't seem to have any familiarity with Michelle Garvey or with this specific missing person case. When she looked at Michelle's MP NamUs file she noticed that there was no DNA to compare against and said that, if it looked like there might be a connection, they could get DNA from her family and compare it. She asked me to send her an email with the information and somebody there would look into it...probably her. I sent that email on 12/26. I wanted to make sure it didn't fall through the cracks, though, so when I hadn't heard back by 1/7 I called the NCMEC and reported the identification to them. The story broke about three days later. I received an email from Dr. Derrick on 1/13 notifying me that my identification had been correct.
