Nicki Virginia Lee Elkins was a teenager who disappeared after visiting her family in Miami, Florida in early 1981. Her body was discovered on March 9 of the same year, having been killed by blunt trauma to the head. She was identified after investigators noticed similar physical characteristics between Elkins and the unidentified woman, Glades County Jane Doe.
Elkins, originally from Virginia, traveled to Florida to visit relatives in early 1981. On Valentine’s Day, departed from her family’s residence in Miami, Florida, on February 14, 1981, stating she would be visiting her boyfriend, whom she did not identify by name. She was last seen walking from the home with a brown suitcase, which has yet to be recovered. The reason for her departure was allegedly after a disagreement with one of her family members. She possibly spent time in the city of Naples before arriving in Miami. Before the connection was made between her and the Jane Doe, investigators did announce that there was a possibility she had been murdered.
Elkins’ was located in a small canal, face down, in Moore Haven, Florida, near the county line separating Glades and Hendry Counties. It was estimated that she died about a day before, but decomposition had already rendered her unrecognizable.
Some reported seeing the then-unidentified female at the Uncle Joe’s Fish Camp or the Trucadero Bar in Clewiston, Florida around the time she was murdered. The remains were thought to belong to a woman between 25 and 45, until 2020.
In 2020, the sheriff’s office became aware of the disappearance of Nikki Elkins, 16, who ran away from home nearly a month before the victim’s body was found. Despite the weight difference, Elkins had a similar tattoo on one of her thumbs, although it is listed to have been on her right.

Robin Ann Green (c. 1957 – c. January 23, 1986) was a woman found dead in Kansas in 1986. While unidentified, she was known by the nickname “Miss Molly.”
Robin traveled with her new husband, Michael, from their residence in Los Angeles, California to Minnesota to visit Robin’s children for Christmas, who were living with Robin’s ex-husband. Robin was last seen on December 28, 1985, with her husband, Michael. She had left her children with their father and they never heard from her again.
According to her family, Michael was part of a drug investigation, and at one point, the couple’s California home was seized. Robin was not reported missing and she was declared deceased.
Michael died in 2007 and police have not ruled him out as a suspect.
Green’s body was discovered along Interstate 70 in January 1986. She had been beaten severely and thrown over a bridge, where she drowned in the water below. She was thought to have been of European descent based on her clothing.
In 2019, a theory came to light that she was possibly Anna Neeft who vanished in 1982 and was last seen in 1984. Dental records reportedly matched, however, Anna’s brother disagreed with this theory. DNA later disproved this.
Robin’s children were encouraged to submit their DNA to Minnesota authorities. Minnesota authorities submitted their DNA into a national database and it matched with “Miss Molly’s” DNA. Identification was confirmed through dental records.
Based on her case’s popularity in Salina, Robin’s family have decided to keep her remains buried in Salina, and they plan to create a proper headstone with her name.

Wanda Deann Kirkum, previously known as “Valentine Doe”, was a young woman found murdered in Florida in 1991.
Wanda was found dead in a heavily wooded area off of mile marker 35 of US 1. She was completely naked, but clothing was found nearby. Wanda was sexually assaulted and beaten, but she was strangled to death with a bikini top.
Her clothing and absence of tan lines indicated she was not from Key West. A day before her discovery, she was seen walking northbound while hitchhiking on US 1 at about 6:30 PM. There was a sign that she did try to fight back from her attacker meaning she was trying to defend herself.
Wanda was identified in June 2020 using DNA comparison. She was never reported missing and her parents are now deceased. Her killer is suspected to be 31 year old Robert Lynn Bradley, who was living in Miami, Florida at the time of her murder. His semen and blood matched the samples found on Wanda. Bradley was discovered murdered in a ditch in Tarrant County, Texas in April, 1992 with gunshot wounds to his head. What his motive was to kill her and what Wanda was doing in Florida Keys is unknown at this time.
