Washington State Patrol (WSP) detectives have been working over 30 years to identify the victim of a collision. In May 1991, an unknown female passenger was riding in a tractor-trailer collision,
which ultimately ended in a severe fire. The driver and passenger both perished in the fire. The passenger has yet to be identified, but has been referred to by investigators as Helen Doe.
WSP Detectives, with the help of the group Lost and Missing in Indian Country and forensic artist Natalie Murry, created an updated sketch (right) using current techniques and skills, in a continued effort to bring
closure to the family of Helen Doe.
Helen Doe, the unidentified female was of Native American decent. She was approximately 5’1” – 5’4” tall with brown hair and a slight gap between the lower middle teeth. Witnesses stated she was of a
slender build between 110-130 pounds with high cheek bones and a dark complexion. She was last seen wearing Levis, grey shirt, and a black cowboy vest with feather earrings.
The autopsy indicated Helen Doe had severe scoliosis with a convexity to the right. DNA, dental records, and x-rays are available.
WSP detectives have worked for decades to try and identify Helen Doe, and will continue to work hard until they can bring proper closure to her family and friends. If you think you may know who she is, please contact Detective Stacy Moate at [email protected] or 425-401-7745.
