DNA TESTS FOSTER / GRANT CASE EXPECTED THIS WEEK

RESULTS OF GRANT'S DNA TEST EXPECTED THIS WEEK


UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN FOUND IN KILGORE TEXAS




JESSIE FOSTER - MISSING IN NORTH LAS VEGAS SINCE MARCH 2006

It will be a matter of days before results of a DNA swab test let Glendene Grant know if a body found in Texas is her missing daughter.

“The sooner it gets done, the better,” Grant said Sunday.

She took the test Friday morning at the Kamloops RCMP City detachment. An investigator with the Serious Crime Unit took two swab samples from her right cheek and two from the left.

The swabs were sent to a university in the United States. Grant was told it could be two days or more before the results come back.

Grant’s daughter, Jessica Foster, 21, was last heard from March 29, 2006. She was living in Las Vegas at the time and may have been caught in a sex-trafficking ring.

The body of the woman was found badly burned on a stretch of highway Oct. 29, 2006. It’s believed she’s between the ages of 17 and 22.

A facial reconstruction of the woman was recently featured on America’s Most Wanted. Grant was alerted by friends because the image was similar to that of her daughter.

Grant said while the photo has similarities to Foster, she doesn’t believe they’re a match.

A kit was also sent to Foster’s father in Calgary.

**NOTE FROM GLENDENE GRANT**

Please note that there is no expected date of return for this DNA. We just have to wait it out. I will let everyone know when I hear anything. Glendene
