“Analysts developed a DNA profile of the victim and entered the profile in the missing persons DNA database,” the Georgia Bureau of Investigation explained in a statement.
“In 2015, the case was reassigned again, and a GBI forensic artist did new clay renderings and composites of the victim for an age progression.”
“The GBI contacted the FBI about the possibility of using a new type of genealogy investigation that had been credited with assisting in solving other cold cases, particularly homicide investigations.”
It was thanks to this cutting-edge technology that the Rising Fawn Jane Doe finally got her name back: Stacey Lyn Chahorsk.
19-year-old Stacey Lyn Chahorski was reported missing in 1989, January to be exact, after last talking to her mom over the phone.
Stacey told her mom that she was somewhere in North Carolina, but that she was planning to make her way over to Flint, Michigan, prior to returning to where she lived with her family in Muskegon.
After Stacey was identified, authorities returned her jewelry to her mom. They’re also working to get Stacey’s remains back to her family and catch Stacey’s killer.
If you have any information related to Stacey’s case and who may have taken her life, you can contact the Georgia Bureau of Investigation at 404.244.2600.
