There's more to go on here than in a lot of cases, but we do have to be careful not to assume too much. I'm sure many thousands of hours have been expended trying to chase down French Canadian possibilities. Colorado Springs is where the Air Force Academy is located, and a large number of Air...

I agree, but comparing with a set even of bullets of the same calibre was probably pretty time-consuming, I would think, even if you had it on something as newfangled as microfiche.

I think that most crime investigators believe that ballistic evidence is pretty dispositive. It's not regarded like hair fiber evidence, at any rate. What is interesting is that they nail a guy on DUI, do ballistics on the gun, and match them up. I think that back then, maybe even now, maybe...

Maybe, but the witness was someone, if I recall correctly, who said that James had stayed at a KOA type place where he worked and played pool with him, from Canada, father a doctor, et cetera, but there's no reason to believe that he had anything to do with the murder. He could have gotten him...

Probably someone's said this already, but Pennsylvania Dutch is a corruption of Pennsylvania Deutsch--i.e., German. Since the family had military ties, I wonder whether he may have been visiting someone he knew posted at Fort Jackson (yes, I know he did his basic training at Ft. Knox), which...

Thanks, MMG. I will.

Maybe, but they put this guy in a different age bracket. I'd like to propose this guy: Ronald LeRoy Zelmer Missing Since 04/06/1985 Missing From Sioux City, Iowa Classification Endangered Missing SexMale RaceWhite Date of Birth 10/02/1953 (67) Age 31 years old Height and Weight 5'10, 170...

Completely agree. I think that federal monies ought to be made available for DNA analyses of all UIDs (and obviously for NamUs, where the guidelines for data entry need to be made broader and more explicit). Reporting of missing persons needs to be incentivized, too. There is an information...

I mean, Iowa City is where the University of Iowa is, so it's a magnet for young people from all over the state, and it's a place where there are good hospitals and services generally, as state university cities often are everywhere. Above the hydraulics building in the picture above you can see...

Well, it says that he's from Ohio, but he went to Goddard College, which is off of Route 2, just outside of East Montpelier. If you follow Route 14 north, eventually you come to Greensboro, which is very close to Craftsbury. This is very picturesque and remote and fairly rugged country...

Well, of course, the other Liberace connection is that Liberace is from West Allis, Wisconsin, a western suburb of Milwaukee and the home of the Wisconsin State Fair Grounds. The connection is probably something to do with that. What I find more baffling is why almost all those exclusions are...

Yeah, I think they had some idea based on two things: 1) when those hayrolls were put in place and used; and 2) when they recalled smelling something rotten but couldn't locate it. Also, Randall would probably have at least notified his uncle if he had decided to turn around without arriving.

I haven't seen a good timeline that pinpoints exactly when Ackroyd returned to the area after his military service.

I guess I'd like to add that the speculation about George Martinez doesn't really help, in my opinion, though hey, I guess anything's worth a look. His name's on a set of scales in her room. That's it. They look well used. There's a photo of her with a Hispanic-looking guy from a photobooth. He...

I think she looks promising. I don't think he does at all.

I know she's younger than the guesstimate here, but what about Gladys Ida Cromer? Haven't looked at the rule-outs or anything, but she does look similar: Gladys Ida Cromer – The Charley Project Already proposed in this thread for Gladys: TN - TN - Gladys Cromer, 19, Crossville, 17 May 1990

This guy would fit, but he's way too tall: William Scott Crain – The Charley Project

Possible, but more likely short for Ramona or Simona. And Din is also possibly Sandino, though I think Dino is likelier.

I think Mexico is a township in Cameron County, TX, (just barely) in the USA. Dean Martin was born Dino Paul Crocetti, so I think that's a good chance.

This guy fits hair color, age, went missing from CA in March of 1988, from San Francisco, middle name Dino.
