Sam Houston State University.There was a horror movie that started with some kid's big brother sneaking them into Death Row to look at the execution chamber.
Is there a college in Huntsville?
Yeah, it’s real close. I also think it’s entirely possible she had some connection to the University. Hopefully she’s identified soon and we’ll find out!Huh. That looks like it's right across the street from the prison, basically.
So smooth-talking college guy invites cute high school girl to a Halloween party and says they're going to party right under the windows of the death unit.
Fight with mother/family, maybe, she walks out, hitches a ride to Huntsville and runs into bad people. Family back home thinks she just ran away and never reports her missing.
Maybe? I dunno.

This also fits the fairly common theme of the era of divorced parents, teens having a lot of freedom, everyone "finding themselves", etc.
Take Sandra Morden, "Fly Creek Jane Doe", another young girl who was unidentified for so long, and it seems as though no one really knows/remembers anything about her. Yet, look at her photos and you see another very pretty, healthy looking young teen. So sad...Maybe WCJD is similar to her case??
I often thought the remark she made to the waitress, "who cares," reminded me of something a young girl might say who asked her parents or guardian for a ride to the prison and they said, NO. So she had a bit of an attitude when the waitress started asking her personal questions...could be why she was hitchhiking (?)
Question still remains, what was the motivation to get to this prison? Would love to know if any workers or inmates are alive today...need to be requisitioned.
T rex...I can see your point too..
She answered all of the other questions the waitress asked..so depending on the order of the questions, either she got tired of answering the questions and responded as she did...or, this particular question struck a sore spot.
She was witnessed at two different restaurants/truck stops...does anyone know if BOTH witnesses were shown the deceased pics or just the waitress? Any theories on why her clothes were not left behind but shoes were?
That is a good thought. If she had left a mental health facility wouldn’t that have been reported to the police in the county it happened in?Interesting points.
"Who cares?" may have also been false bravado. Like, don't go asking how old I am, because I am all grown up and definitely not about to admit that I am in over my head out here wandering alone like this.
Edited to add: A teen with depression might not care either, especially in the moment. I just had the thought to wonder if WCJD could have left a mental health facility? It would fit the middle class appearance...Just a thought

Unlikely to have been reported unless they thought she was going to start murdering people in their sleep or something.
At the time, we all "knew" (so who knows what the actual number was) that people ran away all the time. And also that sometimes families would go to check on their loved one and the facility would say, "Oh, they ran away a couple of months ago."
Agreed Beekarina!...I mentioned a while back our girl reminded me of Julie Soracco....appearance and possible similar living situation. I unfortunately think she was not reported missing. However, she was well nourished and clean according to the autopsy report.
Do we know how much publicity this case got in the beginning ? Also, what, if any, DNA was collected and the bite mark....would like to know when was the last time this was run through the system?
