I find it peculiar that our UID was wearing a 3/4 length coat with fur and boots in southern CA in the month of May. This keeps bringing me back to Valarie missing from NY May 4, 1974, just a few weeks before UP was found.
Valarie was also wearing a 3/4 length coat with fur and black boots when she went missing. Her age, height and weight are all within the range predicted for UP as well.
One difference is UP is possibly Hispanic, where Valarie is not but appears to be of Italian descent. Valarie’s photo was a few years old at the time she went missing.
Thoughts?
