Details of Disappearance

Kimberly was last seen in Jacksonville, Florida on May 29, 1979. She was born and raised in Tampa, Florida and was visiting a relative in Jacksonville at the time of her disappearance. She has never been heard from again.

Kimberly's mother, who died in 2008, believed her daughter was abducted by the Outlaws motorcycle gang, which was active in Florida in the 1970s. Supposedly, Kimberly's uncle had stolen money from gang members and they kidnapped her to try to force her uncle to pay it back. This theory has never been verified and Kimberly's disappearance remains unsolved.

This is how I remember. Kimberly Rae went missing from Florida.
 
If her mother believed she was kidnapped, it's possible she could have ended up as a sex worker by force in California in 1982. If indeed that is what happen (I am theorizing) its possible she was confused with Kimberly Sue Doss who was allegedly sighted but now has an extremely confused case listing her missing in both 1980 from Houston and 1982 in Iowa, with an (un)confirmed sighting in California. That supposed sighting states she was 4" taller (???) and using the name Kathleen Gardner.

My research has actually produced 3 separate women who could be intertwine. I have no proof yet and am putting this out ONLY as a THEORY. Kimberly Sue Doss's family is adamant she was not the girl in California and they never confirmed it was. Kimberly Rae Doss's mother believes she was kidnapped by bikers which would be a more likely scenario to end up a sex worker in California. Kathleen Gardner was a runaway living on the street in CA in the early 80's who is actual still alive now. so what if these 3 women were intertwined by name/misidentification/police error and a simple news article in the Midwest that created a roadblock still in place all these years later???? .
