Hey there!! I wanted to share this link with you so hopefully you’ll become more comfortable submitting potential matches on your own. I’ve always been intimidated to do so, but this has been a convenient way for me to submit. I encourage you to send in any matches you feel strongly about!! Please let me know if I can help in any way.

) as well as mentioning it on Vargo's Facebook page. The more I look at it, the more I think its a possibility.

Potential Match Submission To Panel
Thanks so much for letting me know. I'll look into submitting it through the link once I get the little one down for her nap.According to DoeNetwork 178UMGA he does have DNA, so presumably a match will be considered eventually. Could be a few months, though, considering how recently Vargo was added.
I'd suggest submitting it to the Doenetwork panel, at the link @MadMcGoo posted (she may be mad but she's really good
hold on, why dont we have a photo of one of the tattoos? the one with the globe and the letters. i just requested his death record from grady hospital to see what time he was found and more details. its not clear to me if it was dark outside but im assuming it was. im not sure if im looking at the right map but the street he was crossing didnt seem like it would get busy enough to kill him. it could have changed over time, though. also, why did they leave all his belongings at the scene? its clear to me that he wouldnt have just been walking across the street naked. he was found at 85 pounds. i think he was a mix of homeless and addicted to drugs. by looking into symptoms and physical signs, i think he might have been on heroin or opioids. it sounded more like opioids, though. in the photos of the body he has some green/yellow-ish discoloration on his chest. i think he broke a rib and it punctured his lung because that causes that green or yellow discoloration. i think they ignored this case a little because police tend to write off cases that involve addicts and homeless. its sad but i feel like this needs to be brought back into light. i brought this to the dna doe project and they did try to help, but whoever is in charge of the case isnt paying attention.
Interstate 75 through Atlanta is a very busy highway and cars would have been traveling fast unless it was rush hour (and it was "late at night"). it is easy to see why a car hit would be fatal.
Here is the death report from Fulton County. The info about his admission from Grady would be protected information, unless the police chose to release any of it. As he passed almost a year after he was hit by the car, a lot of the autopsy report and photos are more informative about what happened in that year, versus his condition when he arrived.
After my car accident several years ago, my clothes were cut off me when I got to the ER. Back then, our local amublance service was only a secure ride to the hospital, they performed very little medical treatment on site, other than take vitals and ask me questions like what day it was.
You don't know that this person was underweight when they were found. All that is known is that they were underweight after a year of languishing in the hospital.
i guess i just assumed that he would get some sort of calorie intake at the hospital. im really new to my investigation program, im not sure how it works. but i feel like he wouldnt have been that heavy in the first place because it would be hard for someone 6'0-6'2 at a healthy weight to drop to 85 pounds within a year at the hospital stay. can someone help me with that understanding?
good news- i did get ahold of grady. surprisingly, they are just giving me a lot of info or at least offering it up. i think they're giving me some info on admission but it wouldn't be a shocker if they gave over more detail than im expecting. but, either way im pleasantly surprised. im assuming its because its an old case that really hasnt been touched in a while. ive really been working with fulton county specifically and they are pretty helpful. for a lack of better words, i love it.
