In the case of the unclaimed person, Debbie Jo Kope, the female decedent was found on June 3, 2019, in Tacoma, Washington, and was subsequently documented under the Namus ID: UCP59238.

As her condition continued to worsen, medical professionals placed her on comfort measures aimed at alleviating her suffering during the final stages of her life.
