There's no thread, either under her NamUs number or her Arizona UF number.

I'm going to make one this morning for posterity.

The thread:

AZ - AZ - Florence Junction, WhtFem 1131UFAZ (DN), "Clandestine Grave Jane Doe," Jun'88 *IDENTIFIED 2024*

**Surprisingly this Doe did not have a thread prior to now; I decided to make one for posterity. Her I.D. has not been announced officially yet, but her NamUs is down and she is listed as "solved" on the Doe Network as of March 19, 2024.** AZ | Florence Junction (Pinal Co.) "Clandestine Grave"...

New information about two Columbus, Ohio cases. One is Franklin County John Doe found in Scioto River in 2007 and another John Doe, a homicide victim found in December 2021 in Columbus (not sure if he was added to the DDP webstite). The genealogical research showed they are both from El Salvador.

Forensic genealogy may help identify two Columbus 'John Does,' including homicide victim

Columbus police are using forensic genealogy to try to identify a 2021 homicide victim whose body was burned beyond recognition.

And NamUs: The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)

It doesn't appear he has a thread on here.

 

[lightofmine99]

Alright, I have already started a draft for a thread on this Doe.

Smith County Jane Doe (TX) identified as Sindy Gina Crow. I also think Carl Koppelman’s reconstruction is a bit more accurate, though this one is very good as well

Is this a new case?

 

[PLauritz]

Is this a new case?

There was a request for DDP to help with this case from the detective, but it has since been removed, along with my response about how to contact us to talk further about the case.

 

[summergirl1]

Hopefully you hear or have heard from the detective anyway. Maybe the detective requested those posts be removed. This John Doe has a thread on here now: FL - FL - Silver Springs, WhtMale 17-30, 1075UMFL, scattered remains in Ocala National Forest w/ .38 Special revolver, Dec'92
