Bumping up for Lulaida. I'm very sorry to see she hasn't received the justice she deserves.

 

[Lavender Moon]

Yes, after all these years, there remains a paucity of information and clues.

 

[ep1999]

I believe I have found Lulaida in the 1972-1973 and 1973-1974 yearbooks of Wilcox High School in Santa Clara. The yearbook photos are attached.

Interestingly, they both spell her surname as "Sejalvo", not "Sejalbo". I think it's fair to assume it's probably the same person because it's the same city, "Lulaida" isn't a very common given name and the surname is off by one letter only.

Yes, I agree with you. That's the same person; I have no doubts. What a darling, sweet-looking girl. Someone nefarious took advantage of that sweetness. I hope someday we find out what happened to her.

Lulaida was missing a tooth. I wonder if this Jane Doe is also missing a tooth.
My speculation is that while working at McDonald's, she caught rhe eye of a creepy customer.

These photos are so much clearer than the ones used in her missing person files. If it is not considered overstepping, I think someone should send the link to the Namus contact so they can consider adding them.

I was looking at the thread for the UID, and noticed @sonz82 also created a possible likeness. When I compare the , and the reconstruction from Have you seen this child? Jane Doe1990 I personally really get the "feeling"/impression of Lulaida. Edited: I mapped the location Lulaida was last seen to the spot the UID was found, and it is around 340 miles.

 

[Beekarina]

Noticed in the UID thread Doe Network is considering Lulaida. Hopefully someone will submit her.

Interesting she went bowling with her friend still wearing her work uniform.

I wonder why she did not change? One of my kids worked there for awhile in high school too and the "smell" of the place, just permeated everything.

I was wondering about that too. Seems a bit odd, if she was at home and out with a friend wouldn't she have changed?

May be a case of miscommunication between authorities and the family. I think its possible she would have been wearing something else if she stopped by home. Just speculation though.

Right, unless the friend was a coworker and it was a spontaneous decision made during a work shift?

I just know that my teen never would have gone straight out after a shift, the poor kid could not wait to take a shower! It really gets into your pores, for lack of a way to describe it. Think of the "fry smell" and just amplify it.

I used to work at a movie theatre and would smell of popcorn every day - the only reason I wouldn't change out of my work uniform before going out is if the plans were spointanous. The smell drives you crazy.

Previously in this thread nanajani mentioned that she had just gotten off work, so it sounds like there may have been some confusion on what Lulaida was doing before she disappeared.

I feel this may be a good possible match:
