This post is going to sound horrible but it is sincere. i am trying to find a segment and don;t hav ea better way to describe this.
The case features this odd-looking woman (ugliest woman ever featured on UM. She has brown hair, glasses, big teeth , somehwhat of a woodchuck look. I believe she was searching for a missing relative. I do not know when the story originally aired but my college roommate and I watched it on Lifetime in 1999 or 2000. any help would be great |

Did she have a bee-hive by chance? If so, I might have a name for you. |

I was going to say Mary Hinkle. But I really think it is Sharon Zelinski. I don't believe she wore glasses in the segment, but the actress portraying her as a young girl did wear glasses. So that might be it.

To quote Alfred Hitchcock, "She was a rather unfortunate looking woman."

She had a beautiful spirit!
Man, I hope she never googles herself and finds this thread, it's a bit harsh. |

Was she the one whose second child was "killed by an abusive relative"?

I don't know anything about the segment because I've never had the opportunity to see a lot of the old UM episodes.
However, there is a Cynthia Zelinski, married to a William (Bill) Zelinski, who is now 76 years old, looks like possibly in Laguna Niguel, CA, should Sharon Stevens google herself. Considering how old UM is now it is likely her parents would be 'up there' in age. And I don't think anything positive comes from trashing her looks. Even the prettiest of looks can cover serial killers. |

If I remember correctly, alot of what happened to her face had to do with what her ******* of a father did to her, which was why she was placed with the Zelinskis in the first place. I can't imagine having my dad or anyone else take a metal belt buckle and slash me diagonally down the face and it not leave some sort of scar......
