You should submit the newspaper clippings to namus, pretty sure the LE would benefit adding them to the case file.

I’ve not had luck with getting NamUs to add anything but Doe Network is usually responsive to my requests to have clippings or information added. I’ll email them tomorrow right now or I’ll forget LOL!

I feel like a reconstruction helps and Jose has several.

Clay reconstruction added today (07/29/24)

Well... it's not a bad reconstruction, but something about it just feels off. I think the sketch is better, personally, but the clay recon is good to have for comparison.

It's a bit too uncanny-valley for my liking.

Thanks for the update. That exclusion wasn’t there last month when I made the post. Good to see they are at least taking the time to investigate potential matches.
