Vehicle comments
On January 5, 1996, her gray Nissan Sentra was found outside of the town of Matamoros, Mexico (about 300 miles south of Moreno Valley). The car was stripped, covered in mud, and abandoned. There was no evidence of Bimlesh Singh in or around the vehicle.

Height is within 2 inches if LA Coroner site is correct. Weight matches. Clothing is similar. Charley Project says she had mental illness, which may be consistent with the apparent suicide. The nose looks spot on to me. Location is pretty close. The 6 month gap is a concern, however.

It says that she had a recognizable face so I was wondering if any of her post-mortem pictures were released to help identify her.

There is a pm photo, but it is too gruesome to post here.

Ebonydarkness posted it earlier, and I removed it.

Oh ok I always look for them because that is how I compare missing cases to jane doe cases.

Namus originally said 5'8" but now says 4'10" for height.

Doenetwork now says 4'10" - 5'4".

At 203lb if she were at the shorter end of the range as now indicated, this would have made her very obese and presumably more memorable to those in the area. I wish we knew more about her circumstances - clearly she had mental health issues (was she known to local services). A bit more clarity around who LE 'think' she may be would be really helpful.

Size 44 is a European size, equivalent to around a U.S. size 14. Wonder if she was European?

Ah, see I'm not American and where I'm from (Australia) many of our clothing labels and the majority of shoes list both European and US sizing so I didn't even know it was a 'thing' to only have one. Thanks!

Sometimes brands (like H&M) will have both U.S. and European sizes on the tag but it would be odd here to *only* have size 44 (a European size) listed.
