The case of Wicha Whittle, recorded under Namus ID UCP153017, centers on an unidentified woman whose body was found in Arlington, Texas, on March 27, 2025. She was pronounced deceased at Medical City of Arlington, and despite investigative efforts, no known next of kin have been located. Her death initiated a formal unclaimed‑person inquiry, a process designed to ensure dignity, documentation, and the possibility of future identification even when immediate family connections cannot be established.
Responsibility for the case rests with the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office, located at 200 Feliks Gwozdz Plaza in Fort Worth, Texas. The office, which can be reached at 817‑920‑5700, opened Agency Case Number 2518428 to manage the investigation and maintain all associated records. As a medical examiner agency, its role includes confirming the cause and manner of death, preserving identifying information, and coordinating with regional and national systems such as NamUs to support potential identification efforts.
Because Ms. Whittle had no known next of kin at the time she was found, the case remains open to public assistance. Unclaimed‑person cases often rely on community awareness, medical records, or distant acquaintances who may recognize a name or circumstance. The agency’s website, Tarrant County Medical Examiner, provides additional avenues for contact and updates, ensuring that any new information can be directed to the appropriate investigators.
