I didnt think the reconstructions matched her age range or race mixture, so i thought id try making my own.

 

[sonz82]

I cant view the rule outs so im not sure if this girl is on the list.

There is a WS thread for Sieu - very very little is known about her case.

 

[cvaldez1975]

i could swear this was mentioned or has a thread, because i have google mapped that address before.

I went through all 30 + pages of California uids, i didnt see an existing thread for this girl (unless i missed it)

Not even a photo of her.
She dissapeared from Seattle in 1982...if she is not this doe, could she be a ridgway victim?

Not sure why i suggested lulaida as a possible id, i doubt this girl would have even been born in 73. Oops.

you may be right, i know i read about her somewhere maybe it was somewhere else. i remember because i was wondering if it was in an apt building that was abandoned when they were building the freeway to LAX in the 80's, but it wasn't.

It's always sad to see an unclaimed child who has no name. I wonder if they think her family used to live in or near the building; you have to wonder why she was buried in a courtyard. (As opposed to somewhere more rural.)

because sadly it is usually her family that was responsible

 

[sonz82]

I must have been having a brain fart. This uid could still be lulaida, the fact that she could have been there since the 70s seemed to fall out of my head. Facepalm

 

[sonz82]

Heres some more possible matches...

How sad, how many missing young people there still are out there from the 70's. Every decade really. One you mentioned disappeared on her way to college... just heartbreaking.

Can anyone here view the NamUs rule-outs for this Doe?

There is a WS thread for Sieu - very very little is known about her case.

I had turned in Sieu as a potential match for a few cases and now for this one. I contacted the ME's office as they've been responsive in the past, and received an email back within a couple of days confirming they would look at her in relation to this case.
