can anyone else find additional information on this case? i've been looking for an hour and can't find anything but the namus entry.

fluiddb no. is 1002, but no additional info there.
 
Viola Marie Findley
last seen September 6 1983
in Bunnell, FL (about 4 hour straight shot up I-95 near Daytona Beach)
age 28

She has a gap in her front teeth, brown straight hair, and is 5'4" - 5'6" tall.

Viola Findley traveled to Florida with a friend in 09/06/1983. She never made it back home to Iowa.

She has several rule-outs, but this UP is not listed.
DNA is available. She also had a broken front tooth, and the UP has dentals available.

Thanks for the feedback and the nudge.

Not yet, I have been inactive here for a couple of years and just found CarlK's template.

She is 'talking to me' so I definitely need to get her submitted. Today.

I submitted Viola. Thankfully, since her mom lived near Daytona Beach the missing persons report was issued there instead of in Iowa. Hope that makes things easier since both the ME and LE contacts are in Florida.

I could not get into the FLUIDdb to grab a link to the id number that you posted. I kept getting security issues. Weird.
 
Any thoughts on the possibility of her being Sandra Faye Thompson ? Hair matches, both seemingly had well cared for teeth and I got the feeling the body was dressed, both clothing and nails, as a prostitute.
