Resolved TX - Euless, BlkFem, UP1817, 39-45, stabbed to death at airport, Apr'02 - Name withheld

If she didn't have any ID on her she probably didn't fly into that airport. Especially since it was post-9/11.
 
Hmm, I wonder why she was at the airport at all? I had assumed her body was found in a car parked in long-term parking, but nope: "Stab wound after altercation at airport. Transported to Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas."

Was she seeing someone off, having driven a friend or family member to the airport? Was she waiting for someone to arrive? Or was she homeless, living there (since airports are essentially open 24/7)?
 
So the bus stop where the altercation was, was the bus stop next to "Remote South Parking" for the airport, or at least it is now. It does look as though she was homeless at the time: http://www.dps.texas.gov/mpch/UnidentifiedDetails.asp?id=U0204001 (warning the post-mortem photo is here too). Looks like it did make local news (https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth439684/m1/159/, down as DFW Murder I think), but can't find any articles online right now.


OH, it was at a BUS STOP NEAR the airport - okay, I didn't read enough! That makes it way harder, she could be anyone, going anywhere. Ugh.
