26 years ago, Don and Claudine Ryce’s precious son, Jimmy was abducted, r***d and murdered. Their biggest regret was that they never got to see him grow up to become the extraordinary person he was destined to become.
They were deprived of teaching Jimmy to drive, graduations, showing him the world and a multitude of pleasures that being a parent bestows.
Claudine use to say that, “God sleeps on September 11th.” We hope that in some way Jimmy’s death helps to keep other children safe. We must continue our war against people who terrorize our innocent children.
We thank you for all of your support.

Who is "Madisonville Jane Doe"❓

TikTok Link:

https://www.tiktok.com/?_t=8hm895ZaH0s&_r=1

This little girl was found deceased on September 17, 2016, and so far she has not yet been identified. She was recovered in Texas, off of interstate 45 between Houston & Dallas. She was discovered by a rural property owner while he was out mowing his pasture on a tractor. She was wrapped in white trash bags, inside a suitcase (pictured), apparently tossed over a low fence from the side of the road. She was wearing a pink, long sleeved, skirted top with butterflies that read "Follow your dreams" (pictured), and a size 4 diaper.

Experts estimate she had been deceased for about 5 months, since around April 2016. They estimate she was between 2 to 6 years old at the time of her death. Most notably, the little girl had a surgically implanted feeding tube. She had a medical condition called micrognathia, which made her jaw noticably smaller than normal & would have affected her ability to eat on her own. Clearly, she needed and received medical care in her life. Her death was ruled a homicide. Forensic experts have said she was Caucasian or Hispanic, and genealogy has revealed she also has some Native American lineage. Forensic testing also suggests she lived in the southwest US, likely in southeast Arizona or the adjacent area of northern Mexico near the border.

If you have any information about Madisonville Jane Doe, please call the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at 1-800-THE-LOST (1-800-843-5678).
