    Identified! CA - Mendocino Co, 2 WhtFem Teens, Jul'79 *Francine Trimble & Kerry Graham*

    These new reconstructions reveal very good-loooking children, don't you think? (All children are, of course, good-looking in their own ways...) Were the "perfect teeth" confirmed by the re-examination, does anyone know? That seems unusual, to me, and suggezsts that they might not have been...

    Identified! CA - Mendocino Co, 2 WhtFem Teens, Jul'79 *Francine Trimble & Kerry Graham*

    Yes. And the Rodney L Grissom who was alive in 1994 was exactly the right age to have been the formerly missing youth - but that just makes the initial reconstruction's resemblance seem even more eery, to me :) I'm just overjoyed that, after all this time, such serious, fresh efforts are being...

    Identified! CA - Mendocino Co, 2 WhtFem Teens, Jul'79 *Francine Trimble & Kerry Graham*

    Carl - thanks for all your great efforts in this thread! The resemblance between the photo of Rodney & that earlier reconstruction is startling! This (link) was a google fluke: http://files.usgwarchives.net/tx/collin/vitals/divorces/1994/collv94a.txt There is a Rodney L Grissom, aged 32...

    VA - Grateful Dead Fan - Unidentified male, 26 June 1995 - #2

    Well...there's kind of a trick, here. That is a construct, a scenario concocted not necessarily out of evidence but as an explanation for "holes" in other scenarios. That scenario explains the potential fingerprint "hole" - West's fingerprints wouldn't be a match. It explains how West was...

    VA - Grateful Dead Fan - Unidentified male, 26 June 1995 - #2

    Here's another possibility that occurred to me recently. Let's say that "Jason" is not the wanted felon Mathew Samuel West, but that the similarity in appearance between the picture of West on the FBI wanted site and the reconstruction of "Jason, were a famililial one - that Jason was a nephew...

    VA - Grateful Dead Fan - Unidentified male, 26 June 1995 - #2

    Thank you, you are very kind. I believe there are grounds for asking the FBI to look into this case. I intend to do just that...a few minutes from now. Can't hurt, if their resources were brought to bear on the case - eh?

    VA - Grateful Dead Fan - Unidentified male, 26 June 1995 - #2

    I want to explain a bit more about why I perceive that something is 'amiss' with the lack of resolution in this case. There isn't anything in the case summary info which would trigger a reflexive "oh, who cares" response from people. The victims of this accident weren't fleeing the police...

    VA - Grateful Dead Fan - Unidentified male, 26 June 1995 - #2

    :) thank you. I was expecting fingerprints to be raised as the first response to my enthusiasm for a wanted felon as a potential match, now I needn't wait in suspense for that shoe to drop. I don't have an answer to that, really. Carter Katt has pointed out some possible circumstances under...

    Yes. Repeat their mistakes especially if it is a "lifestyle" for them, or if it represents their contribution to a particular subculture community, for example; selling t-shirts AND LSD to GD fans on the concert circuit? [It's not as though LSD & GD have a unique mutual history or anything :)...

    GUILTY FL - Fred Laster, 16, found dismembered, Lake City, 5 June 1994 *youth pastor arrest*

    Hello Jason - you're enthusiasm is inspiring, and I thank you for sharing it here along with your insights. Try not to be discouraged, if you don't get the confirmation/denial you are seeking in this case. That happens, sometimes. It can be extremely frustrating, especially when you've...

    VA - Grateful Dead Fan - Unidentified male, 26 June 1995 - #2

    Personally, I think this wanted man is the most probable candidate I've ever heard of in this case, which I've been following off & on for over a decade. Some missing or unidentified cases resist resolution for decades because the initial reports so little information that there is really...

    IA IA - Johnny Gosch, 12, West Des Moines, 5 Sept 1982 #4

    Max, In John DeCamp's book, he reproduces a segment of a news article from 1991 in which he is quoted as saying that Paul Bonacci's account of the Gosch kidnapping "did not match up 90 percent, not 95 percent, not 98 percent, but 100 percent" and that "A Nebraska inmate has provided details...

    If you haven't seen Shadowwraith's photobucket collection of news articles on the case, please go to WHTJ #3 thread, post #374, where the link is. The 1984 articles in particular may give you a very different perception of the case and the Gosch's roles in it. For example, there is an article...

    IA IA - Johnny Gosch, 12, West Des Moines, 5 Sept 1982 #4

    Well, that's intriguing! Did you ever have reason to suspect that, perhaps, your "Jimmy Gibson" might be a Bonacci "alter personality"? I'm sorry to hear that you were toyed with and had your precious time & efforts wasted by someone playing identity games. I've always felt that you are one of...
