I think this might be Alexandra Blankemeyer but I can't find any information about her. I found a pic of a young lady who is supposed to be Alexandra but there's no way to verify her identity. It's a website devoted to ummm, advertising someone's bad reputation. I'm thinking if you Google her name and dig a bit you'll find the site, post, and pic. There's a really interesting comment, too. Kinda creepy. The vest she's wearing in the photo on that site looks identical to the green jacket worn by Jane Doe as if it's part of a set or the sleeves were unzipped.

ETA - The post on that site was made on April 3, 2019. This was after Alexandra's LKA date of Feb 21, 2019.

Anyway, it'd be nice to find a MP report for Alexandra. I think these are her remains. The PM photo and the pic posted on the unflattering website are similar, imo.

I found ABs info online and she has a nosering - but the namus info doesn't have any info on piercings nor can you see the nose ring location in the doe's picture. I also think it's weird that a woman who is supposed to be 5'5" would have size 11 shoes on. That's big. She's also wearing men's pants and has "black stubble" on her neck.

It's possible that she took out the nose piercing. It would probably leave a hole but a ME might not even notice it, especially if it had been out for a while.

When this case first hit Namus, I contacted the Brewery regarding the contest this shirt was given out for, and they have no idea who it might be. I also contacted a local comic book store about that necklace and they also had no idea, but both said they would ask around and keep an eye out for information for me.

 

[KaylaraOwl]

Also, looking at those questionable links that come up, it's the same text on each site. I'm assuming a mad ex uploaded the same thing all over the place to try to destroy her reputation.

How sad. I've only seen one site. I didnt realize there were more. If your assumption is correct, I wonder what else the ex might have destroyed, especially on Alexandra's LKA date?

Thanks for sleuthing! Did the brewery possibly post online pics of the event? Maybe someone would recognize her or her belongings. Did they happen to explain the type of event? Was this a large gathering of people at once, over a period of time (i.e., weekend festival/fair), or an online event? What is a homebrewing competition?

I wonder if anyone could reverse search that Batman pendant photo to determine its history, make, etc. I'd do it but I stink at that kind of stuff.

I noticed the nose ring as well. I tend to agree with Victoria about it possibly being removed at some point prior to the date of the accident. There's also the chance that perhaps her nose was injured as a result of the accident. Her photo does appear to be airbrushed/touched up in a few spots including her nose. The black stubble isn't alarming to me as many women, young and old, often tweeze or shave stray facial hairs. Perhaps she was trying to disguise herself or she simply took what she could find during a search of a clothing donation bin or a box at a shelter. Clothing choices are not the same as when one is shopping. MOO

I found the necklace on Amazon but that seems to be the only place it shows up. It's listed under DC so it could be something official of theirs.

I submitted Alexandra's MP info to the Medicolegal Death Investigator at the Davidson County ME's office. JD's DNA is currently being processed and will be uploaded once the analysis has been completed, which I'm told could take months. The investigator will check NamUs to see of Alexandra's DNA is on file for a comparison. I don't expect a callback with an answer but I will keep this case on my radar and will follow up in a few months if there's no change in either case.

Hi, YaYa, I too thought that it was a very good match with Alexandra. I contacted the detective on the missing persons case, however (Chris Line of Knoxville), and he indicated that her mother reported that she is no longer missing. I guess that explains the lack of missing posters and information out there.

 

[kelsie]

I guess her family is saying this is in fact her

To clarify, family is posting on FB saying that this is Emily Dickinson, missing from AR.

 

[KaylaraOwl]

She looks very similar. Are they saying they've had it confirmed that it's her?

 

[kelsie]

yeah. it is her.

Rest in peace, Emily.

AR missing person case solved by CA woman

FORREST CITY, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — A California woman put two and two together and helped an Arkansas family have closure for a loved one who had been missing for nearly a year.

Justice for Angie founder, Tiffany Thomas, who lives in California, was looking at other missing person cases on Facebook, on Friday, September 11.

Snip

Thomas reached out to the contact listed on Facebook, Amber Johnston, who is Emily’s step-aunt.

Johnston quickly replied and said she would follow up. Minutes later Johnston wrote to Thomas, “it’s her,” and “thank you … you brought us some closure at least.”

Johnston had been looking for Emily Dickinson from Forrest City, Arkansas, who went missing on November 5, 2019, she was 17 years old.

I think the LE in charge should submit the information to Namus as her mp case ia still active there.

Rest in peace Emily. Now she can be sent home to her family and they can begin to find some closure.
