IDENTIFIED IN OCTOBER 2020: Champaign County Jane Doe (UPDATED)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.ย. 2024
- VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
On the 1st of May 1995, the body of a female was discovered in Champaign County, Illinois. Almost 25 years have passed and she remains nameless.
I just want to say before I get any negative comments about listing names in a large portion of the video, please bear in mind that despite the fact these women are not Champaign County Jane Doe, they are still missing, therefore having their faces out there is important. Please take that into consideration before commenting.

BREAKING CASE UPDATE: Champaign County Jane Doe has been IDENTIFIED. She was Keri Lyn Wyant, aged 23, who went missing from New Athens, Illinois. She was born in 18th October 1972 and she was last known to be working at a carnival. She gave birth to a son in the mid 1990s, who tragically passed away in an accident when he was 7 years old. Keri spent time in Arkansas, specifically Little Rock, and returned to Illinois. She lived in Galva and Peoria. The Unknown Doe Project, a television show, reached out to authorities and covered costs regarding DNA testing among other things, which concluded in identification.
Her child also passed away? Jesus christ, what a ghastly and sad story.
Thank you for the update!
So very sad, but I'm happy that she finally has her name back.
Thank you for bringing us an update. I really appreciate the amount of respect and sincerity you give each case. Please keep up the excellent work.
Bittersweet. Thank you

Yes, it's always important to share all of these ladies names and photos - the right person may just see the right photo. 💜
I loved how you did that. Ty
@@redceltnet These women are still missing. It only takes one person to recognise one of them for a case to potentially move forward. Good to know you find missing people 'white noise'. How would you feel if a family member was missing? Wouldn't you want their face out there?
Well done that you share those faces and names. Those women vanished decades ago. Their stories aren’t just cold-they’re darn near in permafrost. Your publishing their disappearances brings their stories alive, if only for a brief moment, and may still trigger someone’s memory-of a sighting, of a story at a party, of the report of another Jane Doe. It’s important. Please keep doing what you do, exactly as you do it.
Dark Curiosities Don't know how I found you . But wow so glad I did . New sub her . All the best
So many photos of missing women in this episode.
It's both heartbreaking, and terrifying... 😢
Yes it is
Yes, very true :'(
Gillian Gill such precious angels. May god be with them.
Happens everyday. What I don't get, is how the really young ladys aren't even notified as missing from there family, much less dead. Like how is nobody responsible for these girls? Somebody. A teacher, foster parent, sibling, classmate, friend should know who this jane doe is/was. Somebody had 2 be responsible for there well being. Especially if they were minors.
And this is only a 10 minute video. How many more missing women and children. Its Horrendous.
Unfortunately these pictures represent only a small percentage of people who are missing , horrifying to me.
That's what I was thinking, too.
Horrifying to me too
There are some truly evil people in this world. It breaks my heart
It breaks my heart to hear all these names & to know they aren’t even 1% of the people who are missing.
God only knows how many murderers walk among us, it’s horrendous.
It is very chilling to see all of the missing women who are not this Jane Doe.
Indeed. I look over John and Jane Doe cases occasionally sort of as a way to honor and give respect to the deceased. We may not always know who they are but we can still mourn them.
I was also struck by the sheer number of women who have disappeared. And this is just a fraction of them. Hearing their names listed out was eye-opening to say the least. Thank you for bringing attention to this case (and the other missing women). I had not heard of most of them.
My God, so many women missing. I don't think it hits you until you hear all these names and see their photos. Terribly sad. You really do a great public service by posting this information. You never know who may see this and be able to help find these women. And I very much doubt any of them disappeared intentionally. ALL of them are probably murder victims. Very sad. I hope some of these cases can be resolved at some point.
This is truly shocking, when you put into perspective how many women and girls are missing. Can't imagine what their families must have felt, or are still feeling. Just an emptiness, without any closure. Heartbreaking.
Love your work. I live in Chattanooga and the woman who disappeared from here is suspected to have been killed by her husband. They dug up the basement of the house recently but found nothing.
Its truly shocking just how many woman & Children go missing ......thousands of them. Can you imagine the number World Wide ! I love your posts. Thank you.
My first thought is that the Jane Doe is somehow connected to the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana. Perhaps a student? Perhaps the person wasn't reported as missing from Champaign-Urbana, but was reported from her original home town, confusing the situation. I hope they can use DNA to identify this woman & to bring her killer to justice.
This is a minor matter compared to the subject at hand, Laura, but U of I is headquartered in Urbana, not Champaign, although the campus crosses the boundary, and the two adjacent towns are correctly referred to as Urbana-Champaign, not the other way around. Champaign was originally west Urbana, so why should it now get top billing? When I was a kid growing up there in the fifties, my dad was a professor at U of I, and nobody in Urbana called it Champaign-Urbana. Those nominally in charge these days have changed everything all over the country now and brainwashed the pliable young to follow suit, which is why their politics are so screwed up. That which we learned in our lives they think is useless to them so they simply ignore it, and as a result are clueless about darn near everything of importance, like History. Some college kids (at NYU, I believe) were questioned by Jesse Watters and they didn't recognize pictures of Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, Marilyn Monroe, even FRANK SINATRA! One of my childhood friends from the fifties is also irked at the new way of referring to the twin cities. I haven't seen him in sixty years but I spoke to his mom two or three times and she told me it bothered him, too.
Jake McClintock .....I was just in the Carle hospital with a broken femur. Small world. Anyway, you have to admit that now it is called Champaign-Urbana and the U of I would have been contacted by the authorities at the time. Surely. She would have missed classes, missed graduation, missed student loan repayments, missed rent etc. Something to raise the alarm. I mean, someone that age would not just not be reported. She may have been involved with the U of I but why dump her body in Thomasboro? That’s a tiny tiny town. Blink and you would miss it. Condit Township is even smaller (had to look it up as I never heard of it before). Surely if she was married, some guy would have reported his wife missing. Still, I think the person must have known the area. Maybe it’s my inexperience at committing any crime, let alone murder and disposing of a body but I think that area is too open to have just had someone stumble across it without fear of being seen in someone else’s field because farmers talk to each other. Additionally, dead at least a year meant the latest she could have been murdered or disposed of was April of the previous year. Farmers are not in their fields before that. If it was in the winter before, then it’s barren and possibly slick/muddy. If it was spring-fall then farmers are coming and going. Who would know if you would not be seen, unless you knew the area and maybe the kind of traffic on the road.
Still, very interesting case!
Great video DC!
just wanted to let you know they did use DNA to find out who it was, read the top comment
The most horrific part is the fact there are so many missing women missing who could possibly be her!
This video reminds me of what Kayleigh Elise used to do. It is meant to make a difference. Darkness always matters.
I miss Cayleigh, I'm glad I found this channel.
Everything about this channel makes me think of her...kind of the same outlook
AGREED! Iv thought the exact same thing several times! Thank you!
Judi Doyle ....there are several channels like this. I hope you found them (as you wrote this months ago, I’ll assume you have)
Thank you for your efforts in bringing light to these beautiful women and that they are still lost to their loved ones.....You are so appreciated my dear! Much love to you!
So many women just gone... I know these are just a few missing prior to May 1, 1995. Hope one day these ladies will all be found but I know that's extremely unlikely. Sad.. thanks for bringing all of these ladies to our attention.
This should also be a warning to us that safety isn't about locked doors or hidden weapons. Sadly, we may never hear good news for these women or many, many more but hopefully we become more aware of our surroundings.
Please listen to that little voice in your head or feeling in your gut that a situation is unsafe or odd enough to make you need to get out of there. Don't second guess it.
Don't add to your danger by taking short cuts through deserted streets, dark forests or poorly lit car parking areas. Get into your car and lock yourself in and then settle your hand bag and keys. Lit areas are always better/safer than dark ones. Having a man to go with you maybe a safer bet but no guarantee. Of course make sure you trust him too. A girl friend or two is a good idea but still go into well lit areas.
One of the greater lessons about intuition for me was/is my first reaction is the right one. The guy coming towards you that makes your skin crawl, no matter how "nice" he seems to be in the following 20 minutes will revert to that as soon as the opportunity arises. Groups of men are not safer, in fact worse.
I wish such knowledge could have saved even one of them but more importantly if it saves one of you then share it and add anything else that helped. I've talked myself out of believing a gut reaction a few times and have paid a high price. I'm lucky not to have paid the ultimate price! Intuition is given to us for a reason.
Men, I'm not lumping all of you into the "beware" category. There are terrifying things that happen to you too. Again, use your intuition, gut instinct and commonsense about dark alleys and so on.
In the meantime, look out for each other. You may not be able to defend someone else but you can call police, record what's going or note odd behaviours.
Dark Curiosities you do far more than you know, thank you. 💙
Excellent advice. May I add to your suggestions?
Never let yourself be taken against your will to the second crime scene. Nothing good will come of it, statistics have shown us. Scream, flail your arms, fall to the ground in a limp pile, etc. The moments of abduction are the riskiest for an offender. If he gets you to his basement, you're going to suffer.
Use those locks! All of them. Lock windows, cars, doors, garages, etc. It's your first line of defense and its simple, effective deterrence is totally underrated.
Live alone? Work alone? Strangers need not know that. Leave second-hand men's work boots on your porch. Predators notice details like that and tend not to risk confrontations with a male.
Afraid of someone creepy knocking at your door? Rather than acting like you're not there (which he probably knows you are) try an offensive move instead. Scream to your imaginary male spouse. Yell over your shoulder, "Jim/John/Larry! Get the fuck over here and deal with this asshole at the door!"
Crazy and loud works. "Get off my property/Let go of me YOU SON OF A BITCH I'M NOT FUCKING PLAYING WITH YOU! NOW!" And mean it. Make a loud, uncomfortable, and public scene.
Many victims of violent crime later reflect on the moments leading up to the event. Many realize that their intuition told them something was not quite right, but, for social propriety or fear of seeming racist or fear of embarrassment, they DIDN'T WANT TO SEEM RUDE. Better to mistakenly 'overreact' than face the unspeakable horrors of abduction.
Most likely it is only you that will be able to save you. Think quickly and act immediately.
@@rmorell28 Or if you have a car key fob with a remote alarm, activate it from inside your house. This should scare off anyone who is up to no good.
It blows my mind when I hear stories of Jane and John Does. How can someone live a life and disappear and no one reports them missing for so long?? My heart sinks thinking no one would miss someone as if their life didn’t matter. My hope is that the dna from contributors like me can help track down relatives. There is a new law that DNA can not be used unless contributors give special consent before hand. So if you’re new to submitting your DNA make sure you give consent. You never know how helpful it may one day be in solving crimes! Some people are not happy DNA can be used for this purpose. I can understand to a point but thinking about the bigger purpose, I don’t mind my DNA being used in this manner.
How sad that there were so many missing women. One would hope that, in compiling a list of potential victims in a Jane Doe case, it would be a SHORT one.
I am always shocked when seeing vids with so many women missed, and that for decades. So sad. They are somewhere outside, not known where in most cases. Good that you show their pictures and by that bringing these women back to memory. You are doing a great job!
CASE UPDATE:
A new sketch of Champaign County Jane Doe has been released by Champaign County Sheriff's Office. Jane Doe was found on the 1st of May 1995 in Thomasboro. She may have been born in southeastern Illinois, Nashville, Tennessee, or the Springfield, Missouri area.

Thank you to user, ChrisChampaign, who made me aware of this update.
Bless all those young women who went missing it so sad that they were never found🙏❤
The poor woman🙏❤go out to her family may she rip
I live in Springfield MO. I know that there are missing women from back in the early 90's.
The first sketch resembles shaylene the second photo. The newer sketch kinda resembles Stephanie Benton 7:12 :( this is so frustrating and sad.
So many missing woman.. I can’t even process it tonight. It’s so absolutely devastating for so many families. 😥
Jesus Christ that list of missing women had me in tears.
And these are just white girls/women. The vast majority of missing people in the US are indigenous women/women of color. It's stunning how little effort is made by law enforcement to find these women.
Adox Artist Unfortunately native and black women are twelve times as likely to be murdered than any other demographic in America, yet no one is trying to solve these cases or find their killers :c
This is so sad. How can so many people remain unidentified? Where are their friends and family. If one of my friends/fam went missing I would be all over trying to find them and never give up.
I'm sure they've never given up, but what can they do if nobody speaks up, or if only the person who took them/killed them knows the happened and their bodies haven't been found?
I appreciate your comment, but the issue with comments like this is that they assume that every single person has family or friends who care about them. That is a very privileged position to view things from. I've been involved in sex work, drug addiction, and homelessness, and the overwhelming majority of the people I met in those scenes had no family to speak of, let alone family who actually cared about what happened to them. My own partner (who is a wonderful person) has parents and a sister who would never report him missing, even if they hadn't heard from him in 10 years. He has literally no relationship with his "family" at all. I know this may be hard to believe, but not all families are strong, loving units. Lots of people have nobody. That is why, for me, it is so easy to see why there are so many unidentified people.
Aw Kate, not everyone has friends and family. And not everyone is cared for by the friends and family they do have. I’m so happy that you’ve never had to consider that and that you have a strong friends and family support system 💕
I think it’s brilliant that you did this video xx a great way to get the faces of the missing back in peoples minds xx
I’m from Ireland and I would love to see one done like this for here
Especially as in the mid 90s we had a spate of young girls go missing with signs of foul play in some cases, that were around my age at the time ( late teens / early 20s) in the area I live ( County Kildare ) one of the girls that lived particularly near me was called Deirdre Jacobs .... its highly unusual over here for that to happen and these cases are still unresolved ... terribly sad .. I would love to see this covered on your channel sometime xxx
There are many reasons why people disappear, or choose to disappear. Some are fleeing abusive family members or spouse and don't want to be found. Others really have "disappeared" (been murdered, trafficked, or suffered a fatal accident or disease while out of touch) and can do so without being missed because it is not uncommon for someone to "just pack up and leave", perhaps after leaving school, after leaving college, or to join, or after leaving the military. .... And many of the itinerants you see either downtown, hitching near the interstate, or riding a freight train are people who have "disappeared" from family and friends.
Sadly it is not uncommon for a child to leave home on reaching 18, or sooner, because of a "bad situtation" at home, either because they were abused or just feel disconnected from their parents and siblings.
When my mother dies I suspect that I will drift even further apart from my sister - she has not been much interested in staying in touch, and as the years pass she gets ever more distant, and her being 3,500 miles away doesn't help us to keep in touch; oh, and she hates Farcebook. It makes me sad, but conversely it doesn't seem to concern her. And if she fell off the face of the earth it would be at least many months before I noticed, and after our mother dies, I might never notice. The same is probably true of me from her point of view.
I’ll be your friend...I would notice if you went missing
@@tonicalhoun7398 I think my wife would probably notice too. :D
God Bless all these Children & Ladies that have disappeared🙏😥
Also men and boys too 😪
This has nothing to do with this particular video, but I really like your channel. I don't know how it took the TH-cam algorithm this long to suggest it, since I've been following true crime stuff for years, but I'm honestly so glad it finally did! I love your narrative style and the fact you find related images/clips to keep the videos visually interesting.
It's sad to see these missing women.... and the unidentified Jane Doe.... life is cruel 😔
It's scary how many people go missing. Definitely makes you think twice about going anywhere alone. Hope these families get closure soon.
That list of missing women is heartbreakingly long 😥
This is so so sad and scary. How can you just disappear like that. If any of you are still alive let your family no.
Thank you for taking the time to read the names and show the faces of these missing women.. It is truly sobering to know there are so many..
So many young women disappear without a trace, the list you read seemed to go on forever. I have to say, firstly, I'm glad (though it has its drawbacks) I'm male, and secondly, I'm so glad I wasn't born in the US. An incredibly moving video. You've a lovely accent.
Can't they do DNA testing on the Jane Doe remains and try and pair it with someone to see if it's a match? How can these girls be unconfirmed? I'm confused.
No, it doesn't work like it does in crime shows. You have to painstakingly compare each one personally, and that assumes you have a record of someone who matches.
Yeah I'd think they'd already got their DNA to a DNA company and Gedmatch it to find family and trce back
Thank you for listing the names and photos of these lost girls. The effect was one of sadness and anger. Any one of us could have been on that list.
Thank you for making these lives matter. They really do.
This really stressed just how many missing the Jane Doe can't be.
You do these missing people a great service, by your detailed videos, and empathy and professionalism! I just subbed :) xx
You're doing an amazing job while you're speaking- English isn't my first language and I'm able to listen to you and completely relaxed understand you. It's just perfect diction, speed. Of course your content is great as well, I'm so happy that I've found your channel!
Wait, if the remains were skeletonized and scattered by savaging animals how can her fingerprints be on file? Appendages and digits are usually the first things consumed by wildlife.
onmilo I thought the same
I think you are doing a fine public service by showing these women who've gone missing. It's heart rending to hear all those names and to realize that's probably not all of them that are currently missing, tearing their loved ones lives apart.
Chilling.
Love your videos. So sad for all these missing women. It's so nice to hear a fellow Scottish voice on you tube. 👍🏻🤗🏴
This video is heartbreaking. Listing name, after name, after name... God let these families find answers and these victims find justice.
Thank you for bringing these cases to the public eye. There have been 2 missing girls here in my area ( Oscoda Michigan) since the 1970’s and the girls sister still posts fliers all over near where people from out of town come up to go fishing and hunting. It breaks my heart to see them. I pray every night that these women’s families find them and get some answers.
Nona Yabizness that’s so sad😞 ... I think if that ever happened to a loved one, I’d never give up either💔
I live approximately 5 miles from where they found her. I remember the case. Still no idea who she is.
Wow. So many. Thankyou for your research and thoroughness DC.💔🤔😿
There are so many women missing! To think they are still out there somewhere and someone must know what happened to them.
Thank💖 You for the time you took to name individual victims. Far too many names...😢 Saying their names tells a soul they have not been forgotten. Thank you DC.
🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦
So sad..thank you for all your work. Excellent.
You are doing a great service. A lot of people watch TH-cam and perhaps one of them will recognize one of these women.
When you watch this, you realize how horrifying the missing person epidemic truly is.. .this is only a few years in the early 90s! 1000s disappear EVERY year! Someone, somewhere, is responsible for each person!
This many women and girls...it breaks the heart. Your doing an amazing service to give voice to the voiceless, and try to solve who they are, and find their murderer. Thank you
Wow all these women missing, unbelievable! Thanks for the effort!
Thank you for listing all of those otger missing women and their pictures. Somebody knows them and families are in need of answers. Great job.
I was in college with Tricia Reitler in Marion, IN. It was astonishing how fast the college staff decided she just ran off with some guy. They were all wrong, of course. Victim blaming, as usual. Nothing has been found - or at least, nothing has been announced - since the search immediately after she went missing. I think of her every single spring. The day she went missing was the first really nice, sunny, warm spring day after a hard, gloomy winter. Love to Tricia and her family. Thank you, DC, for including Tricia.
That list of photos is so incredibly sad. It's awful that so many women and girls are missing. I feel sorry for their families. I remember the case of Lisa Wilson, who vanished with Rachel Trlica and Julie Moseley. They've been missing for 45 years.
God bless all these poor women, dark curiosities, Kirsty you are a wonderful woman. I am going to light a candle in mass for you on Sunday and send out prayers for the women. God bless you night night Finola
Thank you for the sentiment. Just to clarify, Kirsty Skye runs a different channel. She featured in a couple of my videos 😊
That montage of missing girls is mind blowing. There’s so many.

Rip ma'am
What a sad and chilling statement of loss. Great presentation, as always. Thank you, DC!
Poor woman (and her child, who also passed untimely). Thank you for covering this case. I’m so glad she’s finally got her name back. Here’s to more Does reclaiming their names.
When you realize there are a lot of missing people and the list just goes on! Wishing for them to be found and give closure to their families.
I know I’m two years late on this comment and it’s hardly the most important thing in a missing persons video, but I have to say your pronunciation of “Oneida” (New York) is better than any others I’ve heard. Being from upstate NY, I can tell you it is mangled constantly. You were very close- it’s actually pronounced “O-ny-duh.”
That was probably silly to even mention but I wanted to give credit where credit is due. I pray all of these people have their cases resolved one day soon.
Seeing all of these missing women over the decades and knowing there are so many more out there who have been found no longer alive just confirms that I am not being paranoid for always leaving the house with my switchblade at the ready.
Champaign County Jane Doe looks incredibly like my friend, even down to the hairstyle and hair colour. I'm getting chills looking at the picture
all those women missing ...
well if she was a mom and had marriage means that you could rule out half the women or more that don't ...but then there's the fact some went missing years before the body was found so it brings up the issue of ...she could've been marriage in the time she went missing and had a child
There's also the ring was it made anywhere could track down the jeweler by serial number
My God, the sheer number of women missing is just staggering. My own feeling is that there dozens and dozens of serial killers on the loose all over the country. Which is a very scary prospect.
Wedding ring on? Anyone else start to think the husband did it and then never reported her missing? And she had no other fam or friends to do it? Interpersonal violence is a killer and pregnant women are most vulnerable...
OMG! I started to cry. It was so overwhelming as you read off each name. 😢
Women, evolution put into humanity a sixth sense because it keeps you alive. That little twinge you get in the back of your mind when you think something's not quiet right with your surroundings; you know, those hairs on your neck that stand on end--dont ignore these things. Your mind may not pick up on the subtle hints that danger gives, but your body will. That guy that seemed cool the other night when you were drinking a little, but now....somethings just a little bit creepy about the way he stares a split second too long?? Or maybe there's something different in the air, unexplainable, that gives you a sense of foreboding... If its just false paranoia, then you've lost nothing. But if it isnt, and you're senses are picking up on the scumbag youre with's bad intent...then, well, your world gets torn apart.
Hmmmmm...and what do you have to say to the woman who are married to their murderer ( or future killer) a staggering number of women are murdered by their spouses in America. (Numbers are probably even higher in other countries) The statistics are both alarming and infuriating.
Champaign, IL is about 3hrs north of me. Thanks for sharing many unknown cases! 💜
One thing is seeing this cases one by one, but seeing the amount of girls who suffer a most likely, terrible end, and the amount of families who are wounded wondering where the love ones are... Simple heartbreaking
I think it is a good idea putting these names and pics out, you never know what it can lead to. So very sad these young women lost their lives. Thank you.
Thank you for a very perfessional job, your voice is much appreciated
Thanks for the update! I’m glad she’s been identified I hope law enforcement gets to the bottom of this case!
Omg Champaign County is very close to where I live and I have travelled back and forth there many times because of family members who live all over the county. I have never heard anything about this and it's very shocking. The University of Illinois is located in Champaign County and thousands of people come and go from the area regularly. Thank you for bringing attention to this person who must have relatives out there still wondering where she is.
Heart Breaking.
Wow...I was just in the hospital in Champaign County, Illinois with a broken femur. Never heard of this but I’ve only lived in the US for 4 years.
Wait, that body was found on a country road? That would be kind of a stretch to dump someone in a field in broad daylight. People drive down those roads and you could get caught. At night, you would need to know the area enough to not get lost in a dark barren area in the dead of night. Great video!
This woman's composite sketch looks so familiar to me. She was found a year before I was born and yet she just...looks so incredibly familiar and I can't place why. I'm from Greenville, South Carolina, with family in Spartanburg County and thats where I'm feeling I've seen a photo of her before. It's so odd. I have no missing family that I know of which makes it crazier.
So many missing girls and women, and this is just a tiny fraction of the total number missing. Sometimes it feels hopeless. 😢
Seeing all these photos is heartbreaking. But when i see the young/pretty ones i immediately think their disappearance is related to sex trafficking. It's a topic very rarely mentioned but it's very common and a thriving industry.
So happy about her identification. Bless the souls of those still awaiting theirs.
All those families lives in limbo, waiting for news about their daughter, sister, mother, aunt, friend. Tragic.
Tricia Rietler's case haunts me to this day.
The list of missing is so disheartening...they're out there. We have to find them.
Am more a 411 follower. And that which defys all logical or rational explanation.. But your site popped up among the listings so gave that vid (the murder of a family camping in 1974..) the time and subbed. As your documentative work on that one. Is of the callabure I prefure, over the more tacky main streams approach. Tastefully respective and with tact to the victim/s and (no doubt) families. Dealing with only the facts presented., and only opinion or speculation, when you specify it to be. However. And out of your control..! That can't be said for the comments section. Which tells a lot about the kind of audiences, any one's podcast or blog tends to attract or appeals too. As I am a man. I have no time for the greatly generalized:- bitter and twisted, man bashing!! Will stay subbed because it's imperative that sites like yours reach a greater audience., and might even lend closure too and for some! Respectfully.
So many names, so many faces, so many stories-TRAGIC.
Where in the world are all of these women at that were excluded?
That's sad. I hope she gets her name back. If you have some extra time, may you please do the Northampton (Pennsylvania) County Jane Doe?
I wish these young girls who go and meet strangers off the internet would watch this horrifying list of missing women... They need to realize just how unsafe it REALLY IS.
I think it's worth mentioning that the vast majority of kidnaps and murders are by people known to the victim, not strangers. That doesn't invalidate your point, and of course this case predates widespread use of the internet. I think this highlights that we should be aware and alert in most scenarios and teach each other and help each other to combat the risks present.
She's been identified! Keri Lyn Wyant from Illinois.
Imagine my surprise to be listening to this while drawing, only to hear my own town be listed.
You have a great channel. Keep up the great work !!!
My guess husband killed her because he may have fallen out of love with her and said to everyone she had gone away with relation then died. And he did it to get out of an expensive devorce from her his new wife or girlfriend totally unaware of the situation. It is just a shrewd guess.
Seeing all those missing women is just so sad. The fact that so many loved ones can just disappear. 🙁
What horrible so called people could kill and dump innocent young women like this. Its horrifying.
