This is a composite picture of a woman who was raped and murdered in Long Beach, CA in May 1974. Gary Stamp has been arrested and charged with her murder, but no one, not even him, knows her name. He thinks it was Anna, but he is not sure. He has confessed to her murder. Detectives on the case would like to know her name. Anyone with information is asked to call Det. Todd Johnson or Det. Malcom Evans at (562) 570-7244.

John Feit

This is so very sad. These bodies were found in 2 barrels, one found in 1985 and the other in 2000 in Allenstown, NH. So far, DNA testing shows 2 of the girls are biologically related to the adult female, but the 3rd girl is not biologically related to them. But investigators do not know who they are. I am hoping that someone who is missing their loved ones will recognize them. I hate seeing anyone unidentified for whatever reason. It truly breaks my heart when there are cases like this. I know these girls were loved and missed. If you have any clue please call:

I am sure any of them will be able to help.
