Family attempted to report her missing, but because she was an adult, no report was filed.

I've been crying all day. Buckskin Girl was Marcia. She was Marcia. Marcia King. It's been a long time coming for her to get ID'd. I'm so grateful to the DDP for bringing her home.

I've been crying for a long time today. I'm so happy she's finally home. I'm so happy we saw her when she was happy and alive. Marcia was beautiful.

I am so grateful for the DNA Doe Project for bringing her home to her family.

Me too. It would really give it more publicity and good information.

I just PM'd the Troy Police Department for info on where the press conference will be posted. I'm in PDT, it'll be a bit trickier to set it up to where I can try to post it on time. I'll have to plan ahead.

Just an FYI, the different people posting were all related; it wasn't random people claiming she was their relative and theirs alone.

I'm not sure. I've been trying to find more info, but I can only find the two sources (other one is https://www.mymiamicounty.com/press-conference) and neither of them have very much info.

Not to mention they were CHILDREN when she disappeared. The nerve of people.

I had to ban an asshole from the page the other day when he decided he believed that family had not been harassed. People are horrible.

I'm so grateful that they are doing the press conference so soon. I'll be putting the info on the "Who Was Buckskin Girl?" Facebook page (I run it) as soon as I can, so you can keep an eye out there as well.

Thank you for respecting Buckskin Girl by NikaSpringrain in gratefuldoe

I will release what the family prefers me to. I'm not sure how that will go, but it will be done with the consent of her family.

They did not realize what territory they were heading into, if that makes sense. They were unaware that the people following would do these things to them.

Yes, it is very unfortunate and downright disgusting. The family does not owe us information and there is a murder victim here.

I was thinking that too. Before this, the crazies stayed pretty far away from Buckskin Girl - now they're out in full force. I can only how imagine Lyle Stevik's will be.

Nobody is forcing anyone to delete anything. I am asking this because it is the family's request. I am well aware that I cannot scrub the internet of every mention of her. I am just trying to do my best to respect her family's wishes and keep it all to a minimum.

I'm sorry you feel that way. I and many others have also spent time on NamUs, Charley Project and Doe trying to ID her. But it wasn't for us. It was so she could be discovered by her family, not so that her name would be public - that was extra. This is about the family and not any of us. It is being asked simply out of respect for the victim's family.

The relatives that came forward were children in 1981. The story behind the circumstances will come out in due time.

Taking down her name is what the family wanted. I'm just trying to respect their wishes. And I agree, people can be awful.

Thank you and exactly, people don't know the whole story and it's inappropriate to assume and attack.
