hoping she is given back her name soon.
There hasn’t been any official confirmation of her identification yet, let alone a statement on whether or not her name will be released. I’m wondering if the Doe Network marked her case as identified due to her NamUs page having been removed, because neither the AJPD nor the DNA Doe Project have confirmed anything yet. Which isn’t unusual at all, I know that they don’t always announce a resolution immediately after an identification for various reasons. But even if her name is withheld, I’m sure they’ll at least confirm that she has been identified when they are able to do so.Will a name be released?
Happy she's identified, and at the end of the day that's all that really matters.. but a part of me is so curious about who she was after all this time.
She's beautiful! Totally different than I pictured! Wow!
The decades-long mystery surrounding the Apache Junction Jane Doe case has finally been resolved with the positive identification of the previously unnamed victim. After relentless efforts by Apache Junction Crime Scene Investigator Stephanie Bourgeois and innovative investigative genetic genealogy techniques deployed by the DNA Doe Project, the once unidentified woman has been identified as Melody Harrison, reported missing from Phoenix, Arizona.
Was there a cause of death? I kept looking after her NAMUS was pulled and couldn't find one.The decades-long mystery surrounding the Apache Junction Jane Doe case has finally been resolved with the positive identification of the previously unnamed victim.

Not that has been publicly released.Was there a cause of death? I kept looking after her NAMUS was pulled and couldn't find one.
Yes, it is implied that she was reported missing from Phoenix. I'm not sure how the connection wasn't made sooner.Was Ms. Harrison ever reported missing?
jmho ymmv lrr
Happened all the time before social media and centralized databases. Even happens today on occasionIt is interesting that she was actually reported missing. I suppose the report got misplaced or something over the years. It's not the first case where the person was reported missing and the dots should have been connected sooner.
