Fortunately, I have learned all ME reports are free. Unfortunately, they can only be released when an identification is made.I would be willing to donate if someone would order it. I do think the letter is going to be the key.

Wow, you sure did try hard. This man and his loved ones sure are lucky with so much love and dedication.Glad to see this thread still going. Can we refer to him as Tod Motor Doe? There has been some recent media interest in the case so I'm back again to try to help identify this man. I've seen some mention of requests under the FOIA and this is what happened to us when we last tried:
We reached out to the Clark County Coroner's Office late in 2017. At that time, the case was still open and active, which is a tad strange considering this is a 12-year old suicide in one of the busiest and most transient cities on the planet. There are criminal elements to this case, most visibly, the issue of identity fraud. Of course, there could be others the public doesn't know about. Detectives now assigned the case (the case isn't actively being 'worked') were reluctant to release any additional information.
In 2018, we filed a state equivalent of a FOIA/FOIL request for any and all information regarding this case, including autopsy reports, police findings, redacted interviews. We were soundly rejected on that request because of the case's enduring status as 'open.'
Hey Dummy: If You Think TMD Was a Foreigner, Get INTERPOL On The Case!
We tried, we certainly tried. In 2017, a detective at the Clark County Coroner's Office said it was "very likely" that information about TMD was forwarded to INTERPOL and international allies through the appropriate channels back in 2008. He wasn't sure however.
A FOIA request to INTERPOL - Washington returned nothing. We were told that even if information was sent, investigative records at INTERPOL - Washington are only retained for seven (7) years from the date a case is closed.
We contacted the Bundeskriminalamt (BKA). This agency serves as the INTERPOL National Central Bureau (NCB) for Germany, and is Germany’s central agency for police information and communication. As private citizens can not pass information or initiate investigations, we were rerouted back to Las Vegas law enforcement.
We then reached out to the Australian Federal Police (AFP) National Missing Persons Coordination Centre (NMPCC). We were informed that they were "a non-operational arm of the AFP, and as such do not get involved in the recording or investigation of missing persons in Australia." We were advised to petition the Clark County Coroner's Office to pass information to federal law enforcement outlets in Western Australia (Perth). Much like German privacy laws, in Australia, statutes dictate that all information and searches must come through official channels.
I found out from LMVPD that the case was closed. They said that they had identified John Doe at the time and so did the coroner. He is still unidentified as far as I know…something is very off
Closed, pretty much. For LMVPD. Coroner is investigating stillREALLY! There has definitely been a bit of covering up going on in my opinion. So which is it, opened or closed? If he's identified then why is there still a file?
Still think he could pass with the passportpicture of the uid… has e ever been ruled out?What about Daniel Eberhardt? When you Google him there's a lot of media about him, but i don't see him on the European missing childrens lists. So maybe he hasn't been looked at... I think there's a resemblance...

What?
If it's suicide, then the case is usually closed anyway.
Often the public is not informed of ID's if it is suicide
The County should remove the NAMUS file.
Edit: NAMUS page (I can find it, but I can't link it..weird) Unidentified Person / NamUs #UP417
It’s an open coroner case but not an open police case. I’m sure the coroner has worked hard to try to ID him.The page is blank for me
Except for the heading.
How strange to have a case like this and the people responsible for investigating it have no idea if it’s open or closed?!?
Oh I see now! Thank you Grungster!It’s an open coroner case but not an open police case. I’m sure the coroner has worked hard to try to ID him.
