The photograph of her being rescued fetched the 1988 Pulitzer Prize for spot news photography to Scott Shaw of the Odessa American.
After the accident
Following her rescue on October 16, 1987, surgeons had to amputate part of her right foot due to loss of circulation while in the well. She has had 15 surgeries over the years. She has no first-hand memory of being trapped in the well. McClure graduated from Greenwood High School, near Midland, in May 2004.On January 28, 2006, Jessica married Daniel Morales at a Church of Christ in a small rural community outside of Midland. The couple met at a day-care center where Morales’ sister worked with the bride. Later that year, Jessica delivered a son, Simon.
On May 30, 2007, USA Today named Jessica one of the "25 lives of indelible impact," ranking her at #22.
When Jessica turns 25, she stands to receive a trust fund of donations from "well-wishers," rumored to be in excess of $1,000,000.
McClure's rescue was credited mostly to Robert O'Donnell and William Andrew Glasscock Jr., both of whom received tremendous media attention. In 1995, O'Donnell shot himself to death after suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder. In 2004, Glasscock was sentenced to 15 years in prison on charges of sexual exploitation of a child, sexual assault, and improper storage of explosives.
