Came across this MP while researching unfortunately have not yet located a full description on the MP nor many MSM articles. Normally would not post without full description however thought possibly the WS community may be able to help.

Stephanie was from Dunedin, FL her father was the chief of police searched the Pinellas Co and Florida missing database with no luck in locating a profile for Stephanie.

News Article – New Orleans Times Picayune

*Note: Article refers to another missing person that I'm currently researching

News Article – Tampa Bay Times; 3/25/2011
It was noted in this 2011 article that Stephanie still had not been located.

It was once alleged Stephanie may have been a victim of Lucas and/or Toole though they were cleared.

Second article mentions multiple gold jewelry. I wonder if she was wearing these items or they where not located in her residence. Robbery could be a motive in her disappearance.

I grew up in Dunedin,Fl. I was 11 when Stephanie went missing. My father knew her father. She is one of the cases that I hope for answers for the family

 

[AliceInPain]

Can anyone check to see if Stephanie has been ruled out?

I was looking through the Lucas Report and found this, some errors but I think these are the two cases referred to.

That is the Jane Doe mentioned in the report but it seems really doubtful it was him. The very timeline covered in the report details his whereabouts during that period of time and he is never in Louisiana. He spends a day or two in TX but near Dallas, not SW Texas, before heading to Illinois.

 

[AliceInPain]

It's unbelievable how many cases are still closed even after it has been proven he was elsewhere.

I managed to log in to Namus and that UID has 0 exclusions.

 

[Onfortuneswheel]

For real. After watching The Confession Killer documentary, I've almost come around to the thought that he wasn't a serial killer at all. That he possibly killed his mother but that may be it.
