Tent Girl Mystery
This mystery of the tent girl is still unsolved. On may 17, 1968, a dead, naked body, estimated to belong to a girl between 16 and 19, has been found inside a bag, with what seemed to be a diaper on her head. No sign of injury or pregnancy have been found, nor has she been shot. Luckily, a single fingerprint was managed to be recovered.
The police and hospitals have been prying upon the case, but with no success.
QUOTE Although the police spent hours digging through letters and following up leads, none of them helped. The problem was that the Tent Girl was very average in her appearance, with no singular striking feature... She was the generic girl-next-door, and literally hundreds of missing girls fit what little was known of her physical description. One lead in particular looked promising; a missing girl from Pasadena, Maryland, named Dorris Ditmar. But, despite matching dental records, the lead was a bust... Ditmar turned out to be alive and well, and living in Bradford, Pennsylvania.
A few people have pointed to evidence, bu that, too, either didn't lead anywhere, or proved false.
Just then, some new evidence has been found.
QUOTE In Bucks County, Pennsylvania, another girl was found dead under very similar circumstances. Her name was Candace Clothier, and she was sixteen when she disappeared from her home in Philadelphia... The body was tied up in a bag that had washed up on a small island in the creek. Clothier's body was taken to Lower Bucks county Hospital for an autopsy. The canvas bag had been tied around her neck, and she had a wool sweater wrapped around her head. From her state of decomposition and the mud encrusted on the bag, it was obvious she had been dead for some time. Not only had both girls been tied up and disposed of in the same manner, but both matched closely on comparisons of weight, height, hair, and body structure.
Although, the connection between the crime seemed obvious, the mystery remained unsolved, and the girl was buried under the identification of "Tent girl"

Do you think the cases were connected? Is there some mysterious Hitchcock murderer with a specific and unusual style? Or is it just a coincidence?

The magic of forensic science is marvelous in helping to solve such mysteries, but it is sad in this day and age where unusual murders happen often and we give tragic death such petty names as 'tent girl'. How ever she died I hope the killer pays the price.

That is weird and to end up with a name like "Tent Girl" is just sad they could have at least think up some kind of generic name like "Lucy" or "Jill" or whatever.
