Given the possibility that the victims may all have been female prostitutes, a task force of 40 police detectives has begun reviewing a list of women reported missing since the mid-1990s, along with missing women outside of Albuquerque.

Her younger sister went to high school with one and her teenage daughter is in dance class with the other woman's daughter. Says Ross: "I keep thinking about it over and over and I just can't believe...
