  1. The family never saw the original report?

  2. These cases are much better given openly to the public… Police are so inept it's scary to see people thanking them.

  3. MedMen Stock Moving Up this Year! Best Brand in the Marijuana Industry! Buy MMNFF stock today……

  4. The fact the no one familiar to the victim ever bothered shows someone in the family knew.

  5. THATS WHAT I CALL A COLD CASE

  6. Her husband or mate would be my first suspect. Abusive men often keep their wives away from their family, alienating them so they can control them.

  7. From the pictures, she was living with someone, therefore, someone knew she went missing. She didn't tape herself into a refrigerator and throw herself into the water. And there's kids involved…. and worse, this story was not known for 27 years…. dna technology is going to give so many, much needed closer.

  8. Now that they have her identity, they will find her story. My guess is she may have been involved in drugs so the family stayed away, but still, what about the kids? Was she the one parenting them those last few years of her life, or not? All of this will come out in the wash. Those kids are seemingly still alive, they can provide more information.

  9. Check the BOYFRIEND OR HUSBAND. that's the MOST OBVIOUS. Who's the father???

  10. Where did the family think she was at the last 27 years ???

  11. Rip refrigerator lady

  12. God bless geneology and upgraded forensic testing
    Rip
    They will catch em they can't hide now so they should try the easy way out
    Cause they will catch em if whoever ain't already dead

  13. It was a cold case ….

    Worst opening line ever

  14. my childhood best friend had the same full name 😢

  15. no missing persons report? but 3 kids? what?

  16. How terrifying. She looks like a sweetie. May she be at peace. Thank you to those who found her name. Now find her killer. Those children deserve justice just as much.

  17. Rest In Peace Amanda🌸🌷🌹

  18. family were hiding her disappearance

  19. There is absolutely no such thing as justice or good people

  20. I was born and raised in san Joaquin county. My condolences to the family. Im so sorry 🙏🥀🕊️🕯️

  21. Thanks for watching our YOUtube channel

  22. DANGER! ​​Toxic chemicals delivered to Kramatorsk

    ◽In addition, the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation received information that on 10 February 2023, a rail transport arrived in Ukraine (Kramatorsk) with a cargo of chemicals in one of its cars, accompanied by a group of foreign nationals.

    ◽The car was detached and towed to the territory of the Kuybyshev Iron and Steel Works in Kramatorsk, where it was unloaded under the control of the Security Service of Ukraine and the AFU command representatives.

    ◽The consignment consisted of 16 sealed metal boxes, eight of which were labelled with a chemical hazard symbol, BZ inscription and marked with two red bands, corresponding to the class of poisonous substances of temporary incapacitation action. Five of the boxes were labelled as 'C-S-RIOT', three were labelled as 'C-R-RIOT' with a single red band, which corresponds to substances with an irritant action.

    ◽The cargo was placed on the U.S.-manufactured armoured vehicles, which moved to the combat line of contact as part of the convoy.

    ◽On 19 February, 11 cars of specially marked shrapnel ammunition have been unloaded in Kramatorsk. The unloading took place at night on a platform in the suburbs, with the car labelled as 'Building materials', 'Cement'.

    ◽According to the information of the Russian Ministry of Defence, the U.S. Army has previously upgraded its shrapnel rounds to be loaded with ready-to-use, liquid formulated irritant acids.

    ◽The facts of the simultaneous delivery of toxic chemicals and protection means indicate an attempted large-scale provocation using the BZ psychotropic warfare agent during the conflict.

  23. Dear Amanda – you have your name. Amanda – may you know they never gave up on you. Rest in peace now. Thank you to all LE and good folks who have identified this young woman. Thank you to all who work to solve cases, no matter how long it takes. Each person has a value, and may we all remember that when they are missing.

  24. When will you bring justice to men and poc?

  25. No one in her family filed a report?? That's sad.

  26. Her family never reported her missing, so was she someone who frequently vanished for long periods of time without telling anyone? Or was the family hiding the truth? I'm sensing some major red flags here.

  27. Mother of 3 and no one filed a missing person report? UM, let's take a look at that family shall we, says this amateur sleuth. 😎
