Tara calico photo skin#

Tara’s mother believed it was her daughter because she claimed the girl in the pic has the same scar as Tara on the right calf, but I’m not convinced that it is a scar on the unidentified girl’s leg. I also think the noses are a little different.

Tara’s skin color is lighter, too, but the other girl could have been in the sun before someone took the picture. The unidentified girls’ eyes are shaped differently from Tara’s and appear to be brown, whereas Tara’s were green or hazel.

The eyebrows on the unidentified girl are different than Tara’s. Yes, I agree there are similarities between Tara and the girl in the pic, but I also see differences. I’m not convinced it is Tara in the Polaroid picture. In October 2013, police re-opened Tara’s case. Patty Doel died in 2006 without ever knowing what happened to her daughter. Rivera claims he knows the names of the boys but has no evidence to make an arrest. The boys panicked and killed her after Tara threatened to go to the police. According to Rivera, two teenage boys were in a truck following Tara when they accidentally hit her with their vehicle. Twenty years after Tara’s disappearance, Valencia County Sheriff Rene Rivera stated that he knew what happened to the young girl but did not have any evidence to prove it. Part of Tara’s Sony Walkman was recovered 19 miles from her home east of Highway 47, near the John F. The following day, Patty searched again for her daughter and found a cassette tape belonging to Tara three miles from their home. When Tara failed to show up at noon, her mother, Patty Doel, went to look for her but couldn’t find her. Witnesses saw a dirty white or light gray 1953 Ford pickup truck with a white handmade shell following Tara.īefore she left for her bike ride, Tara told her mother that if she was not back by noon to look for her because she had plans with her boyfriend at 12:30 p.m. At 11:45 a.m., a witness saw her on Highway 47 in Valencia County, along her regular route. to go on her usual daily 36-mile bike ride and vanished into thin air. On September 20, 1988, Tara Calico left her Brugg Street home in Belen, New Mexico, around 9:30 a.m. The girl is thought to be Tara, but this has never been confirmed, and Tara has never been found. In June 1989, a picture surfaced in Florida depicting two children – one a teenage girl, the other a boy around 10 years old – tied up and laying on a makeshift bed. Tara Calico, 19, disappeared in 1988 after going on a bike ride in Belen, New Mexico.
