The constellation of injuries in different stages of healing suggests that Christmas Doe '83 was very probably a child-abuse homicide too, yes. She had suffered injuries to her face which the medical examiner could see on her bones.
She lay in the woods for probably at least a year before she was discovered, maybe five times that long. Her skull was found first, then partial skeletal remains of the rest of her body, which had been extensively damaged and scattered by wild animals.
She is estimated to be a little older than Kenyatta, but as we saw, Kenyatta was older than they estimated her to be by a year or two. Some kids are smaller than the average, especially kids in situations where they might not be getting proper medical care and nutrition. We know Christmas Doe '83 had chronic ear infections, which also left marks on her bones.
This little girl hasn't had the publicity that Kenyatta's case has. I really think the way forward is for the LE responsible to be open to
@othram or another GG org picking it up and running with it. These cases with little Black girls who fell through the cracks are SOLVABLE. We see it with Kenyatta Odom, we see it with Amore Joveah Wiggins, we see it with Neveah Tucker. I have the highest of hopes for Christmas Doe '83 and St Louis Baby Jane Doe. I think Identifinders is linked to Miss St Louis, so we need someone to step up for Christmas Doe '83, bring this little girl home and give her the name back she's been denied for over forty years.
MOO
