Bump. Any news Migmuu? I really think and I really hope that this is her.
Thank you. I was getting confused.
I called Ashley Shaughnessy two weeks ago but she said she hasn't heard anything.
I remember she said back in July that it could take up to 6 months, so I think we'll have an answer sometime in January (or early February at the latest).
NamUs now says Sample submitted - Tests complete for Mabel, so I think it might not be her.
The system is capable of developing possible matches. But the comparisons and exclusions are manually completed. Dental records and fingerprints can sometimes be difficult to review without the help of a subject matter expert.
We have been working to develop tools that will help streamline the process of comparison / exclusion.
The best way it can work now - an investigator can see the list of possibilities and go down the list using biometric comparison to exclude in a process of elimination.

Jennifer Barton disappeared from Austin 5 days before Debra did. Each time I see either one of these women, I think of the other. There is no known evidence that they are related, but look at both when considering the timeline & location. Both have threads here tagged Travis County (Austin.)

Jennifer is now listed as only rule out.
I'm guessing you never heard back Migmuu?
