A year on, it’s revealed Netflix missed out key detail about Amy Bradley being ‘found’ on adult site

A whole year after Amy Bradley Is Missing was released on Netflix, it’s been claimed a massive detail was missed out about photos that appeared to show she had been “found” on an adult website. 

In March 1998, Amy Bradley went missing from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship. On the night she went missing, Amy had been in the club on the ship, and was then last seen in the early hours of the morning, on the balcony of the family cabin. The case has never been solved.

One of the theories raised in the 2025 Netflix documentary about the case came after the Bradley family was sent images from an anonymous sender. In September 2005, the family received pictures that claimed to be of Amy – under a different name – on an adult website.

The woman was called Jas, and the site was based in the Caribbean. The anonymous sender attached a link to the website, which showed s*x workers for hire. At the time, the Netflix doc claimed FBI analysis concluded that the woman in the photos was in fact Amy. But, the IP address for the site couldn’t be tracked so nothing came of the tip-off.

During the Netflix series, Iva, Amy’s mother, spoke about the moment she got the tip. She said: “Seeing the photos, it was a terrible thing. A level of panic. All I could keep thinking is, ‘Is that my daughter?’ We all looked at it — the nose, the chin and the hair — it took my breath away.”

However, now it’s been claimed Netflix skipped a whole element of this theory that changes everything. In an interview with LadBible, James Renner, a true crime author who wrote A Cruise to Nowhere: My Search for Amy Lynn Bradley, has shared what he knows. 

He said certain photos that prove “Jas” is not Amy were purposefully missed out, and claimed Netflix saying the FBI believed the photos were Amy was not true. He also said the Bradley family doesn’t believe the pictures either. 

Speaking of the viral photographs, the author said: “It’s not Amy. The family knows it’s not Amy. There are a number of photographs of Jas that we were not given in the documentary, that are able to be found online that clearly show that she does not have the tattoos that Amy Bradley has.”

He added: “I’d say the biggest thing that I didn’t like about the [Netflix] documentary was that they led the viewer to believe that the FBI concluded that photo of Jas was Amy. That is just simply not true. There was a forensic analyst of some sort who said that he believed it was Amy, but he was not a working or current FBI agent, and the FBI certainly has never said that.”

He also said he doesn’t not believe the theory that Amy was taken from the ship to be trafficked. “White women are not kidnapped and trafficked in the Caribbean,” Renner claimed. “There’s not one verified case of anybody, any woman being kidnapped off a cruise ship and sold into human slavery.

“Human trafficking is a problem in the Caribbean, but it’s almost exclusively women of colour from poor countries like the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Haiti, you know, places like that. There’s no reason to kidnap a woman to force her into prostitution anyways, because prostitution is legal in Curacao.”

That being said, following the Netflix doc being released, someone on Reddit said they had come across photos of Jas which *did* have similar tattoos to Amy.

“You can clearly see the cross tattoo and the rest covered up by foundation,” the poster said. One comment replied: “Holy sh*t, that’s huge. Excellent investigative work.”

A man then came forward and said he had he purchased s*x from a woman he believes was Amy. The man was even able to describe her distinctive tattoos in detail. At the time, the Bradley family was said to be trying to get in contact with him. The mystery continues.
