As usual here is a case that they say things about it but do not tell us why they believe these things about the dead girl,I find that frustrating. I am adding her because from the clues it says that she was probably trafficked or abducted from Mexico. I believe she looks more Caucasian and to me that means there is a slight possibility that she was trafficked from another country and then was trying to be smuggled on in to the US to work one of the many illegal brothels here and something happened. I could be completely wrong but with this very limited information about her and the circumstances she was found I feel that thinking she could be a trafficked woman from elsewhere in the world is not that far of a reach,even though her tattoo is in English and her dental work is not foreign.
She was found shot in the face alongside the Colorado river in Yuma, Arizona in October of 1999. She was murdered where she was found.
