Here's a list that I believe share many similarites to Dakota. Probably others, but I researched these. 1. Paul Kochu 2. Jimmy Slack 3. Ron Yancoskie 4. Jacob Lipp Also Joey labute from Columbus OH shares many similarites.

As far as I know the exact message has not been released. But a family member did state that the father received what they believed to be a jumbled "butt text."

I've been reading up on the joey labute case after seeing this. In this case there was also a jumbled "pocket text" received by a family member just like Dakotas dad received. Too many similarities to ignore. Columbus Ohio is a close drive from Pittsburgh also. The FBI needs to start taking all...

Wow. So many similarities to this case.

Good point. I would think it would show that. Unless clothing is ripped or torn off from the currents as was said in the Paul Kochu case.

Your theory makes sense and it's quite possible that it could just have been a horrible accident. The worst part is that he was about a 10 Min walk home from that point. But I guess when you're buzzed you aren't thinking completely clear and for males urinating outside is easily done.

I still can't see why he would've gone down by the water willingly. Maybe in the summer, but not on a cold winters night. His direct path home would've taken him directly over the 6th street bridge. Then proceeded straight through the north shore. Making no close contact with water. No reason...

Hmm I can't see any reason he would take that route either. Although it is possible. I'm leaning towards the theory of him getting in a car now. Hopefully more witnesses come forward. Not alot to go on at this point.

Right but if he was that close to the bridge he shouldve been picked up by the cameras on the bridge. Without actually crossing fort Duquesne Blvd he wouldve had to turn left and walk further down to the point. Has it ever been confirmed that the 6th and 7th street bridge cameras are functional?

Well that is awesome for you and your children. But from what I can see Dakota is 23 had a steady professional job and was studying towards his Master's degree. There is nothing abnormal or slow about that.

OK I hadnt seen that. Good point.

I'm not thinking that Dakota ended up in the water. I park on the north shore every day and walk across the 6th street bridge to my office. If he made it to the bridge he would've been seen on camera. The only way to get close to the water from the city side wouldve been to walk all the way...

He couldve had a restaurant or retail job during school and not included it on linkedIn. I worked at the olive garden while in college but I don't list it with my professional jobs.

He has his Bachelor's and was persuing his masters at Duquesne. Many people don't get their first "real" job till their 20s. How do you know he did not work prior?
