Jane Doe became known as the lady in the fridge and missing person reports from across the
country and Beyond were cross-referenced with her details but no one matched
investigators continued looking into her case but it became colder and colder as the years went by
each year investigators would glance over the Case Files hoping something new would stand out
but nothing ever did her details were entered into nemus but still no leads came up then in 2022 the
San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office contacted othram asking for their assistance the skeletal
remains of the lady in the fridge were handed over to othram who were able to extract a DNA profile
using genealogical techniques and databases authorum was able to find the possible mother
of the lady in the fridge while the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office had to do was obtain a
DNA sample finally in February 2023 othram the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office announced
that the lady in the fridge had been identified as thirty-year-old Amanda Schumann Desa at the
time for disappearance Amanda was separated from her husband and was a mother to three
children according to friends and family she was last seen in Napa California and an unknown

force trauma to the head at least six months before she was found number three Marina Ramos
on December 11 1989 two tourists making their way down old Temple Bar Road Mojave
County Arizona just 50 miles from Las Vegas made a startling Discovery at the
side of the road lay the body of a young woman who had been stabbed multiple times
her clothes had been removed and it was clear to onlookers that she'd been attacked where she
fell the Mojave County Sheriff's Office took over the case and began their investigation
the medical examiner determined her time of death to be around 24 hours there was no sign of her
killer in 1989 there was very little evidence to work with and her case quickly ran cold
in late 2021 or early 2022 the case was reopened with fresh eyes and a new approach to Crime Scene
Investigation fingerprints from Jane Doe were obtained which led them to the potential identity
of woman named Maria Ortiz from Bakersfield California when the family of Maria were
visited they could not recall anyone by that name but they did remember that their cousin
Maria Ramos had disappeared sometime in 1989. a DNA sample was obtained from a close relative and
sure enough it was a match finally the 1989 Jane Doe was identified as Marina Ramos who'd been 28
years old time for disappearance investigators also learned that Marina's daughter's 14 month
old Elizabeth Lisa Ramos and two-month-old Jasmine Maria Ramos disappeared around the
same time Witnesses were called seeing Marina in the company of a man known as Fernando who was in
his 30s or 40s and drove a black SUV according to reports Marina Fernando Elizabeth and Jasmine were
headed from Bakersfield California to Ontario California before she mysteriously disappeared

number two Sandra Morton it was on February 28 1980 when two men a father and son Duo
were sifting for gold and making their way along Fly Creek in Clark County Washington
when they came across human remains the exact location of the body was close to nf-54 where
it split with Canyon Creek according to reports The Remains were almost intact
aside from the Torso and hands being missed the remains were said to be mostly skeletal
in the report the medical examiner concluded that the remains likely belonged to a young woman aged
13 to 18. although most likely in the 15 to 16 year old range her cause of death remained
undetermined there was very little information the medical examiner could Garner from her remains she
was believed to be Native American Or Hispanic and had well-developed neck muscles indicating she was
likely involved in sports or manual labor the case quickly went cold investigators were eventually
assigned to other cases in 2016 the ncmec and Nikki Costa of the Clark County Medical examiner's
Office created a new 3D rendering of her face from her skull giving us the first lifelike shot
this photo was widely circulated but again generated no leads
then in 2019 the Clark County Sheriff's Office made a shocking announcement the Fly Creek Jane
Doe had been identified as 16 year old Sandra Sandy Morton according to reports parabon Nano
Labs aided in Sandy's identification although the exact methods used have not been released also at
that announcement they stated that Sandy is likely not a victim of the infamous serial killer Ted
Bundy and anyone who had known Sandy around the time for disappearance is asked to come forward
Sandy was born on April 29 1962 in San Francisco California with the family
moving to Washington State when she was still young in 1971 Sandy's parents divorced and
she went to live with her father Andy Morton who lived and worked in Vancouver Washington
Andy's job often had him working out of town so Sandy often lived with friends or relatives
according to Coin News Sandy at last attended Wilson High School in 1966 to 1967. she was
due to enroll at the Newberg High School in late 1977 but failed to attend her first class
ever since then her whereabouts had been unknown
Sandy's family had no idea that her Mains had been found just miles from where she had lived it has
not been stated whether she was officially reported missing investigators ask anyone
with information to contact the Clark County Sheriff's Office Cold Case unit at 654-397-2036
when Sandra Morton first disappeared from Clark County in the 1970s her family never imagined
her remains would be found near Fly Creek in Amboy Washington a few years later the Clark
County Sheriff's Office says Sandra was just 16 years old when she disappeared from her
dad's home he came home and she was gone um and so of course he called my mom and
my grandmother at the time was still alive also you know he called us and the search
started I never death never entered my mind I never thought oh she's dead you know I mean
um I just I just always believed that she was out there somewhere number one Nora Elia Castillo
in June 1988 a farmer walking through his Fields 20 miles outside Springfield Colorado discovered
skeletal human remains the Baka County Sheriff's Office were immediately alerted and several more
parts of the remains were discovered Baca County Sheriff's Office searched the farmer's field for
several days finding several items of clothing gray corduroy Levi pants a size 34b bra and a
beige winter coat with faux fur collar and cuffs a 1986 quarter was found in one of the pockets
the Baca County coroner was not able to determine the cause of death only that the remains had been
in the field for between one to three years according to the doe Network most of the
skeleton had been bleached by the Sun and parts of the spine was still attached Corner estimated
that the remains belonged to a woman aged 16 to 22 possibly Hispanic Native American or european
the coroner also noted that the woman had extensive dental work including two silver
cast crowns the technique of which suggested that she was from Mexico or close to the Border
unfortunately the case ran cold quickly dental records were sent to dentists in the area but
no matches were found dental records and a DNA profile were also submitted to the National Crime
information center which led nowhere the woman was eventually buried in the Springfield Cemetery
as a Jane Doe the Baka County Sheriff's Office never forgot her case and vowed to get answers
in 2021 the Jane Doe was exhumed and a new DNA profile was obtained according to the
press release this DNA sample was submitted to nemus the details were murky however according
to koaa it appeared that the DNA sample was submitted to Family Tree DNA and gedmatch public
genealogy databases from there Michelle Kennedy an investigative genetic genealogist discovered
a first cousin once removed genealogists were able to work through Jane Doe's family tree and
came across possible close relatives according to the Baca County Sheriff's Office they were
notified by namus that a possible DNA match had been found as per their press release quote Not
only was the familial DNA submitted for analysis by solved by DNA a match with family of arjane doe
but the DNA profile of a person who submitted her DNA sample to the McAllen Texas Police Department
