TX TX - San Antonio, off Austin Hwy, Wht/HispFem 13-33, UP2972, Oct'07

What does everyone think of Jennifer Apreciando? The eye colour and hair colour match, she went missing a few months before estimated death in Texas (where the UID was found), the remains were skeletal so won't show the tattoos Jennifer had.
Do you have a link Danaya? I see that the UID has a very long age range (13-33)?

The head shapes are fairly close, but IMO, their chins and jawlines look different. Also, Jennifer is considerably shorter than the lower limit on an already wide height estimate. And BTW, there is not an eye color for the UID. It's skeletal remains.
 
Elia is no longer listed as missing so the thread has been closed.
 
The UID link has changed.
The woman in the TXDPS link is now
http://www.doenetwork.org/cases/656uftx.html

The NAMPN link to the Missing Person is gone and I did not find a missing Mereida Rodriguez.on NAMPN, Doe Network or Charley.

Missspelled, perhaps? There is one with an almost similar name who used to be listed as missing and was located safe in 2005. Note: it was before this UID was found in 2007.

Mereyda Aguilera Rodriguez
Mereyda Aguilera Rodriguez was considered an endangered runaway when she ran away from home on December 26, 1989 from Westminster, Orange County, California. She was located safe in 2005.

I think Heather Marie DuPriest, posted above is the closet match...

This case really bothers me, I live in San Antonio. I grew up a few blocks from where the UID was found. The area is on the edge of a sketchy area and an upscale area. Very nerve racking. I'm going to start concentratin my research on this UID.
 
Ok, bumping this thread, because they had Elsha Marie Rivera's mother on the Dr. Phil show today. She is still missing. :( They had a young lady on there, that was abducted, and escaped. She said she picked her out of a line up, as being a lady that was shot and dismembered in front of her. For the record, like Dr. Phil (and he stated this on the show), I don't believe her. I would love to see Elsha's mom get some closure though.

12/09 A Woman&#8217;s Memories or Murder: Was There a Crime or Another Traumatic Event?

Lauren says that in March 2004 she was kidnapped from her home at gunpoint, sold into sex slavery and witnessed a woman&#8217;s murder -- all in just eight days. She says she somehow managed to escape but claims her memory of the ordeal was lost until five years ago, when she started having flashbacks. Lauren says she has gone to the police, but they don&#8217;t believe her -- and she admits even she questions herself at times. Dr. Phil sits down with Lauren and her mother, Hannah, in search of answers. Why does Hannah say her daughter could not have been missing during that time? Then, professional locator Troy Dunn unites Lauren with Elizabeth, the mother of the woman Lauren believes was murdered, who remains missing. What does Elizabeth say? Can Lauren finally find some clarity and begin to move forward?

Same link.
 
I'm doubting the girl on "Dr. Phil." But I have heard of things like that happening (a very unpleasant case in Oklahoma.)
