Is he in NamUs or anything yet? Any cause of death released?

Yeah, WOW, that is a creepy "reconstruction!" Why did LE not just release the postmortem photograph itself?? How could it be any worse/more disturbing? UID had a four-inch long BRAIDED goatee, SOMEONE should remember this man!

"Death Due to Natural Causes" plus "Contact APD Homicide Main Line"? UID was found in a utility trailer, I wonder if he was a landlord or hired to work on the property? I wonder what happened there?

Yes, please, someone should submit Kieran Burke! The tattoos alone (since we do not have any pictures of the man) make it a great possibility, IMO.

I actually think she looks very close! (keep in mind that UID had overdosed, that the "recon" is based very closely off a photograph of a relatively pristine very-recently deceased person) And as Rose Cole was running and hiding from a cult, it could definitely make sense that she was found so...

Hmm, she looks pretty dang close to the sketch of the UID. But that's quite a long time to be alive but unaccounted for, July 1967 to February 1983.

Thanks for the warning! I wish they'd not paste scary uncanny-valley eyeballs onto dead faces! I'd personally rather see plain ol' morgue photos, it's better than being startled by fake eyeballs staring back at me.

Hmm. Patricia Gutierrez seems like the best possibility for submitting - no picture, could be anyone! UID did say her name was Pat, which could very well be true! Sherie Graves is out of the age range, with some probably disqualifying scars (although the UID died in a fire, who knows what got...

GOOD. Those Sandy Hook (and/or September 11th) "truther" people who think the victims are all fake are APPALLING - harassing grieving parents must be about as low as a non-violent person can get. I think the basis of that particular brand of conspiracy-theorism is actually (paradoxically)...

Oh, wow, I had not heard of that case. That's different from the Spears case: supposedly Hannah Overton was feeding her little boy salt as PUNISHMENT? But then "Multiple inconsistencies and errors plagued the state’s case against Hannah. Rather than being force-fed salt, evidence...

Good possibilities! Remember that UID had been dead about a week, left outside, during June. Presumably her skin was nowhere near pristine, so I would not rule out a missing person for something superficial like a birthmark. Doe Network says that UID had "No visible scars, marks or tattoos"...

Nope: they would need a warrant to search the medical records of EACH individual who is a possible identity (as I understand the law).

I am sorry, I did not mean my post insultingly at all. (Reading it again I see how meanly it comes across.) The "garden variety psychopath" was a quote from another poster; I do not consider UID a psychopath, just a troubled woman doing the best she could. Should some one delete it for me? (I...

OH, it was at a BUS STOP NEAR the airport - okay, I didn't read enough! That makes it way harder, she could be anyone, going anywhere. Ugh.

Hmm. You might be right there. I know adult diapers are relatively expensive things to buy regularly (which made me think "not homeless") but I don't know how many municipalities have programs which make them more accessible.

Oh, yes, that is horrible. I definitely would have been one to bound down to the boiler room, expecting to find a kitten or two in need of help, what an awful shock to find a dead human! Creepy creepy creepy!

Sad. What a lonely death. I hope he was at least warm in that sleeping bag. :(

Well, if you go far enough back, we're all related to everybody. Think of how many people are descended from Charlemagne. Or Tamerlane! Geez.

Regarding the IUD, she may have just not been able to get it removed. In a country without universal health insurance, it costs money to get IUDs and Norplant rods removed. She may also have been appropriately cautious regarding the risk of pregnancy (many 40-50ish women get complacent when...

I think these similarities are due to these people not wanting to be identified, not wanting to "burden" their families. EDIT: But not knowing what happened to a loved one could be a lot more upsetting than knowing they killed themselves.
