I mean, she left home at the age of 16, she did not have the best relationship with her parents, and she was traveling to Arizona. Their parents probably thought she was ok. My mom did not talk to her sister in 30 years after she dropped out of high school and escaped with her boyfriend, my grandparents had 12 children so they did not give it too much importance. My mom decided to look for her 5 years ago, and she found out she married an indigenous guy, and she's been living in a remote area of the Amazon jungle for the past 20 years. She has 8 children and most of them did not know how to talk and were scared of people, my mom she told me they were living like savages. My parents bought her a small house in a town near the area where they used to reside. Now the kids are going to school and the oldest one is 20 years old. She did not communicate with my grandparents because she did not have a way to do it, and since she left home, they assumed maybe she did not want to talk to them. My aunt did not go missing, she just did not want to be found.

I can't wrap my head around the fact that her family didnt report her missing. I was 14 in 1969 and had an older sister. I live in Canada. If my sister travelled to LA en route to see a brother in Arizona, wrote a postcard saying she was happy in LA and that was the end of her communication, I believe any and all reasonable family members would call the RCMP. 1969 wasn't the dark ages.

The family not reporting her missing really bugs me. They were concerned enough about her going to LA alone that they told her not to hitchhike but then never said a word to the police after she stopped contacting them because "times were different"? The sister said she and her parents always had agony in there hearts over the years about her being missing and potentially dead. So they just let 50 years pass by? This case might have actually had a chance at being solved and now every shred of evidence is most likely gone forever. Way to go.

One person can make the difference. A person who take his job so serious !!! I am thankful that persons like him still exist.

In my experience, this level of estrangement within a family is a result of family secrets. The fact that Reet ran when she was a teenager with little more than a bus ticket, & the fact the family has remained basically silent about Reet being missing for 50 years--these facts speak to a family structured on secrets. I am absolutely AMAZED that her two childhood friends remained so dedicated in their quest to find her. And they did find her. That is astonishing, the equivalent to a needle in a haystack found 50 years after it was dropped on the other side of North America. I hope the friends have found some peace with regard to Reet, & that they are living the kind of wonderful life that such good friends deserve. Great job, CBC & 5th Estate, for bringing attention to this story.

This family is originated from Estonia, Europe. And Estonian is their first language, I can tell by their Estonian accent and Reet Jürvetson postcard is in Estonian: Kallid Ema ja Isa. Ilmad on kenad ja inimesed on lahked. Mul on kena väike korter. Käin tihti rannas. Palun kirjutage. Kallistab Reet Dear Mom and Dad. Weather is nice and people are kind. I have nice small apartment. I'm often visiting beach. Please write. Hugs Reet. From this postcard, you can really tell, that Reet wanted to be in contact. And yes, Reet sister Anne really seems faking it or is distracted by the cameras. Regardless, she is acting her cry and the looking something else. Pointless, no cry is needed. Just be real. One thing is pretty annoying, people are pronouncing French names correctly, like it is in French, but Estonian names are pronounced very wrong here.

When they showed the picture of the deceased Jane doe and slowly changed it to the picture of Reet, that was sad.

It's a shame they destroyed the rest of her clothing. There might have been additional DNA on it. I heard about a homicide case where authorities were able to identify the killer because the victim had the perpetrator's blood on them as well. They had also been stabbed to death, and apparently the bloody handle of the knife caused the killer's hand to slip down the knife and get cut.

I might be wrong but I don't think it was the Manson family. They didn't hide their crimes and were proud of displaying their victims. I think (just my opinion) it was someone close that she knew. The stabbing indicates a close intimacy. Maybe the killer just enjoyed the thrill of it or it could have been a boyfriend or male friend who was angry at her due to rejection, breaking up, drug infused fight...etc. Her bf could very likely had been involved...

This family is somewhat pathetic. they were interested in their beloved sister till it was brought to them. They did absolutely NOTHING to find this girl till it was brought to them... That shows family dedication.

So many unanswered questions. Also, the sister (and likely others too who received mail from her in LA) having the return address but never going there or writing to it to ask about her?

What a beautiful woman, Reet was. Wow. God bless her family and all of those who are still working to bring justice for her.

interesting documentary! i love how it's edited

1969 ? Yes, she was so beautiful and sounds like she was quite a bright light ! Her family deserve justice. They are right, her spirit was so bright, you can see it in her eyes. Very tragic. My sincerest sympathies to Reet's family. They have so much pain and yet love in their eyes too. It's amazing how strong we can be. Blessings.

This is a really sad case not just because of how Reet came to her demise but that her own family never reported her missing.!! It's like she was abandoned. RIP Reet 🙏🏻 🙏🏻💗✨️🇦🇺

Great family, really loved her, NOT... They did not even report her missing !! WTF they had return address, why did they not look it up, when clues were more viable. The sister said they went there, yeah right and didn't bother to look up address! So So sad for this girl. The family still do not acknowledge any blame, full on excuses, blame in that she would have been identified and poor thing have a head stone instead of Jane doe 😢

WOW, she was a very beautiful young lady. She has the iconic look of a girl from that Era in history. It is a tradgedy that her life was taken in the way it was, and that horrible person has escaped earthly justice. Hopefully someone somewhere will see this show and tell what they know, so this case can be solved once and for all. Something else I find tragic, is that she was cremated and buried in a mass grave. Her family has no body to bury. That poor young lady is buried amongst other people that were not cared about by society. She doesn't even have a headstone where her remains rest!

I think he has. I think Rodney Alcala did it. And he was sentenced to death.

That sketch could be of ROD ALCALA! because on 1 of the crime shows about him, there is 3 or 4 or more he was asked do you have a nickname and he told them sometimes my friends call me Ghar or Jha !!!

The last recreation of the suspect match with the description of the serial killer from L.A Rodney Alcala.

Its crazy to me because I believe this was a case where the post mortem photos and sketches were SO obvious, and if she had just been reported missing, she would have been identified much earlier.

Respect to her friends Gilda Green and Ilmi, they really care and still worried about her friend. Imagine you never in touch or communicate for almost a half century with your friends, seeing the photos in the internet you would ignore it you didn't believe it was her. It possibly you believe that she had good and happy life. But, Gilda the one who realize it was her for the first time.

I'm sorry, but those folks only had to pick up the phone and report her missing. She might have lived. No excuse. I don't care about 1969 and etc. bullshit. I know people with the SAME situation and they called when their child -especially a beautiful girl was gone after 24 hours, even if they thought she was being "bad" and "running away". My brother took off and boy, the cops found him in California on a beach, smoking dope with other kids NEXT DAY! we lived in Connecticut! There is NO excuse. Sorry for your agony, but even afterwards, you didn't pursue it as you should have. Also, crying with the investigator and the teary hugs and comments in front of the camera? I dunno. Not exactly a spontaneous meeting - after a camera, sound and lights set-up, huh?

People grieve in different ways........

Hi! I just have to put it out there, so the stupid comments about religios backround stop. Estonian are and have been one the less religious country in Europe. Certanly a ton less religious than USA. Maybe the parents were stricks, but most parents were back then, I dont think it had much to do with her leaving. Why they did not report her missing? Well maybe being foreign people they did not feel that comfortable doing that and they really believed she was doing her own thing. She was an adult and if you ever have looked into the cases of missing adults, police would not have considered this case anyway. The people are missing in one state and their body is found in another state at it still takes almost 50 years to identify these old cases. So this theory that if the parents would have reported it, it would have been identified it the time to capture the murdered is really slim.

I've noticed that the sister didn't shed tears. She keeps saying that someone knows something now, but what about then. She didn't even feel compelled to report her sister missing. That's very telling to me. This so called family knows way more than they want people to think. I didn't see a single tear. She tried to make it look like she was crying but I didn't see any tears.

this were uploaded on my birthday,such a sad case.thankyou for doing this video.anotherthumbs up as always.

She was an Estonian descent. I see she doesn't say a much in that card she sent seems she wanted to keep the distance to her family and keep it in secret what ever she was doing there in LA. Sad story.

I"m trying not to be judgemental, but why didn't her friends report her as missing years ago? It just seems weird to me that they would all of a sudden go looking for her almost 5 decades later. Did they just assume she had run away to start a new life that whole time and just suddenly had a change of heart almost half a century later?

As sad as this whole story is, it’s even more sad that nobody cared enough for fifty years to ever find her. Her family just let her vanish, and left it at that. Yeah, before cellphones and social media, but your sister cuts all communication and that’s that. You don’t find it weird? Don’t care about her enough, to at least tell someone?

157 times That's just pure evil and grudge Im really wondering his hand didnt get tired while he was stabbing her or may be there were more than one killing her

That postmortem pic morphing into her real one was horrible! If u don’t want to see that, be careful right after they identify her, if pops up. It’s when they show the color postmortem.

It is so heart breaking to see the people were brutally murdered and the murderers still hanging out in an open air, scary.

At the beginning of the video, when they show her belongings, they show two rings - one with a black oval stone and the other a silver band with markings on it.Later in the video they show a photo of Reet and you can see her wearing the same ring - the black oval ring. This seems like the black ring could have had some sentimental value; had been giving to her at a young age, her favourite ring that she wore daily etc. Maybe the silver ring she was wearing the day of her death was given by her boyfriend. as its a common gift to give a girlfriend and seems like he was into the hippy movement that was going on at the time and the ring looks something of that style. The silver ring could be a good piece of evidence to find out who her boyfriend was, if the sister wore it she might recognise/not recognise it or the artist who knew Reet and the boyfriend. Jewellery can be a good way of triggering memories as its something that catches our eyes when seeing it on another person but it can often be given at significant points such a birthdays, anniversaries etc.The rings could also have makers, date marks etc. Just had a thought and wanted to share the idea

Her family are shameful

If this case still continues to remain cold/open, the murderer might be dead soon...

She was so beautiful. My god. I’m so glad that she was found. Finally after so many decades that has been pass, her soul has finally been rested. Bless her soul.

So be smart and trust nobody. People can seem amazing and fun and sweet but be dangerous and evil underneath. Live for her and stay very safe so you can live the life she never got to live. I was like you both and if not for God looking out for me I definitely would have been murdered or died several times because of men or dangerous situations I wound up in. Most people only care about themselves and what they can get from you. Its way way worse now than in 1969. I was a free spirit when I was old enough to run free. I wish now I had stayed in church , a real biblical one, gotten married and had a couple of kids or had a career. Nothing is fun enough or carefree enough to put your life in danger. You and I would have been close friends with the same attitude in my teens. I just thank God I survived it. Please be careful. Get some Krav Maga classes and learn to protect yourself. Never get in a car with anyone you haven't known well for ages. And always let someone know where you are going. Who with. And when you will be back. I have gone so far as to get my date to stop at a store so I could go buy something to drink and then told them I was not getting back in the car and called a cab and went home.

Reet was a stunningly beautiful young woman rest in peace I pray your case is solved and you get justice 🌹

I was just 3 yrs old when this happened and ppl give up and say that a 20 yr.old cold case will never be solved..

I am glad the people who cared about her got answers. If anyone has ever looked at the register for unidentified John and Jane Doe's found it's awful and heart breaking how many there are, most have things like jewellery and clothes that might be recognised but most are never identified. There's children on it too. It's horrible. I guess DNA is only tested against some one thinking they are a family member. Wouldn't it be better if family members of missing people could give their DNA and have it checked nationally?

To never report her missing ...not ok
