The more I look at the picture, the more I think that the 'pointedness' is actually distortion in the photo. Anyway, I looked a bit on wikipedia, and it seems that Loafers weren't really made on a larger scale in the US until at least the mid thirties. In any case, I am almost leaning towards...

I saw this linked to on Reddits Unresolved Crimes, a new theory. http://tamamshud.blogspot.dk/2017/02/the-somerton-man-named.html?m=1 I don't super see the similarities, but others apparently do. It is intriguing, a KGB agent who apparently went off the radar in mid-1948.

As far as I could dig up, Ng was arrested in April, which would be right around the time that the bodies were dropped. That could, in this theory, be a reason for Lake to get rid of them, him relocating and/or being afraid of Ng saying anything. But as Tess points out, Ng and Lake probably...

Just thinking out loud, Charles Ng and Leonard Lake met each other in 1981. By April 1982, Ng would be in jail and Lake skipping bail. They wouldn't, as far as we know, start their murders until mid 1983. At the time, early 1982, they were based on the other side of Mendocino National Forest...

It's kind of funny. We had all these theories, we were sure that she must have been fleeing something, nobody goes through those hoops for fun, and that she must have been several years older than she claimed, but in the end, she was just a girl who left home and never looked back. She was not...

I recently read the book "The Disaster Artist" by Greg Sestero, about the production of the neo-classic so-bad-its-good movie "The Room" and his relationship with Tommy Wiseau. And I got to thinking about this case, because Tommy Wiseau is pretty much a man who has erased his previous identity...

I am thinking, maybe she scoured newspaper obituaries for possible girls without social security. In the Photos Only section of this subforum, there is an article, that mentions not only the death of the sisters, but also their respective places of birth, ie, that Becky Sue was born out of...

I don't know if it was discussed in a previous thread, I couldn't find it if it was, but what do we know about the Boulder City PO box? That is apparently the earliest location we have for her, if I understand correctly. Apparently before she took the identity of Becky Sue. A couple hours drive...

I think I followed the same link as you, and yes, that does resemble our mystery woman. But even if she was too old to be FLEK herself, was she really old enough to be mother to someone who was, at most estimates, 20-ish by the mid to late eighties, probably born before 1969? She seems to be...

That kind of thinking, that is emotion ahead of evidence. Facts in this case are in short supply, but one fact now known is that she was not and never were Kim Mallon. I don't think we can afford to trash it just because it doesn't fit your theory.

Just for the timing and being one state over: http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/j/johnson_felecia.html. The teeth doesn't really fit, I think, if I understand which were missing from the Doe Network site. Also no mention of jewelry.

I dunno, the lengths she went through to not be ID'd, I am thinking there was someone she didn't want to know of her passing. If she was permanently alienated from her family, and had no real friends, would she really have cared that much? If you disappear to commit suicide, you want to leave...

(Almost 20)

The problem is, as I understand it, his face was completely mangled. NamUS lists the condition of the body as "Not Recognisable", so it must have been a really bad crash. It could have been a complete mess, more like a gory jigsaw puzzle than anything we would recognise as a face. I am certain...

I keep looking at her possessions, and I keep returning to the thought that there is a clue in what is not there, as I briefly got into earlier. No underwear, no socks. Toothpaste but no toothbrush. Nice cosmetics and perfumes, but no soaps, or any toiletries apart from the toothpaste. An Iron...

This site, http://meyahna.tripod.com/pg19.html, that someone linked to earlier, has a list of her possessions. I assume that the bible belonged to the hotel, though, now that it is mentioned, it is specifically called, in what I've read, the "King James bible", not "a bible" or "a Gideon...

I just don't believe that a man, though described as possibly somewhat mentally challenged still capable of driving a car and living on his own, would get lost on a route he has probably driven a thousand times and never figure out how to contact his family, and just settle where he ended up...

No, it was tickets for two different days. 24th and 25th. So I think he was definently a dead-head, coming in for the full weekend. The prevailing theory is that he either got away from any friends he was there with, who had his stuff, his stuff were stolen, or both. If he weren't homeless, I...

http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/c/cedillo_michelle.html How does she look? Disappeared April 2007, 38 years old, red hair. I can't find a lot about her disappearance, though.

I agree about the note. Probably semi-unconnected ramblings of a person we know was mentally ill, and who was a notorious scribbler. And, for a moment, this paper seemed so important that she decided to save it. As for her changing her identity, the thing is, she did it so thoroughly and so...
